What exactly does 'locking' mean in this case? When my GC were small, they mostly slept all night but could wake very early. GS went through a sleep walking phase, and our house has a long corridor and landing upstairs, and a steep curving staircase. We fitted a cabin hook at the top of each bedroom door, and explained to the children it was to keep them safe if they did have a 'sleepy wander', and they knew that if they called out one of us would be there in an instant. It gave us peace of mind and didn't worry them in the least - I really can't see how this could become a fire hazard, as the hook could be flicked off in a split second while opening the door, and how long does it take to turn a key? The reasons might be innocent - is this post a wind up?
