Yes, get that stupid fluffy toilet seat cover off, so the lid leans against the tank.

Our son use to pull it out and then lift the lid...until one day he didn't push the seat all the way up... Ouch! We felt so bad for him! So my advice, teach them to lift the lid and then pull it out.

I'm sending my boys an email asking them to thank me for being a single mom with cheap plastic light weight toilette seats.

Who needs a toilet seat? Mine broke, and the apartment maintenance staff was a bit slack, so I got used to living without one, and that was 5 years ago. Now I have one, but I still never put it down. So it's a bit cold for a few seconds in winter. Play through the pain.
