There it is:"I don't care". Of course you don't, because if you did, you'd get
answers you don't want

And what are you going to do when food magically appears on the floor after
you've implemented your new lidded trash can? "Oh the cats must have figured out
how to get the lid open"

Of course not, because she has you to do it for her. You are some mother,
preparing your child for the world when she's on her own.

1) because it's her problem, not yours

2) because some day you will die and she will have to take care of herself

3) because 13 is way old enough for her to take charge of her body and herself.
