Flushing Toilets?

Ok - at what age do you find your children consistently flushing toilets?
I have a 10.5 yo dd ----- and she often does not flush - is that weird ----- or par for the course?!

DD (13) has never had a problem with that, but DS (11) CONSTANTLY has to be reminded to flush.
Ewww....I just had to remind my ten-year-old about this!
I think I'm glad I'm not the only one!
And here I thought I was the only one with this problem!! My kids are horrible about flushing toilets (All 4 of them!). I have no idea what's wrong with them that they can't reach 6 inches and push a lever. . .
Every time they go to the bathroom, I yell: "Flush the toilet and wash your hands with soap!" I need a recording that goes off when they open the bathroom door! LOL!
Not only that, but the 2 boys leave the seat up consistently. They learned that from my DH, who is horrible about that! He has 3 sisters, and to this day I cannot believe he didn't learn to put a freaking toilet seat down, but our sons have taken after him (ugh!). . . At least DH flushes!!
Eewwww about your MIL!! You shouldn't have to deal with that!
One time when I was like 8 months pregnant I got up in the night to pee, and DH had left the toilet seat up and I fell in (It was dark because I didn't turn the lights on). My screams of outrage could be heard from miles away. He came running, and I had some choice words to say to him. It still didn't cure him. I have threatened to bolt the seat to the toilet, LOL.
Like I said, at least he flushes!
