I have , when I was about 10 , my parents hadn't came back yet and my brother wasn't back from school yet and so I was waiting about 15 minutes to get in.
This made laugh!YES! and I wish to go on record here that it's my husband's fault. We changed out our entrance door, and went from one dead bolt lock to dual locks. No, I. Don't. Know. Why.
My dear husband at first was questioning why this was such an issue for me, until the day(s) he locked himself out when it was darn cold and I stood on the other side of it looking out the window at him with my hands raised!
We only lock the secondary lock at night now...
Yes, about five or six years ago. My sister had dropped me off and was waiting for me to go into the house before pulling away, and when I fished around in my purse I couldn't find my house key. Aaaaand I had to go to the bathroom so badly I was fidgeting. She parked the car and stayed with me because it was nighttime and nobody was home. We have a screened in room attached to the garage and we sat in there. I was practically crying because I had to gooooooooo. It was about an hour before someone came home.
The next week I had a key made for my sister to keep in her car, because she's the only person I really go anywhere with who doesn't also live at the house.
A few times as an adult. Apartment living is good, in that eventually maintenance will come unlock the door. Except last time, they couldn't find my backup key, and for some reason the master key wouldn't work. They had to replace the entire assembly. Now we have new doors that have to be actively locked.
As a kid, many times. My dad said they had so many kids so that there would always be somebody small enough to crawl in the bathroom window.
