I have three kids who are all youngsters. As you can imagine, my house is always a mess & our schedule is crazy. None of my kids are able to drive yet, so my wife & I are constantly running them around from activity to activity. This past year has proven absolutely hard to stay on top of their shenanigans, because they got into a absolutely bad habit of changing the temperature control settings. When my wife & I told them that they weren’t allowed to change the temperature of our house without permission, they argued that their friends were able to do it at their houses. This seemed unlikely, however even so, we couldn’t’ afford to recklessly heat & cool our house. My nice friend and I had a smart temperature control that controlled the temperature for us so that our Heating, Ventilation, & A/C system would run efficiently. When our kids proved that they were not capable of keeping their hands off the temperature control, we had no other choice however to purchase a protective box to location around the temperature control. One installed, it would prevent anyone from opening it up & changing the temperature without a key. My wife & I hid the key in a secret location & we never shared the location around the kids. Once they know where it’s at, they’ll steal it to change the temperature. Our kids were furious at first, however we haven’t had any complications with the temperature changing since! My nice friend and I should’ve installed the box around our temperature control a long time ago.
