Who Should Have Thier Own Room?

Our daughters always shared a bedroom. They argued back and forth but they leared to share and to live with someone who does things differently than they did. I agree that the odest should have the bedroom by herself then when she leaves home the middle one can move into it.

I'd leave it that it is. My feel on it is the oldest should be the one getting the most privacy at this time. Its hard though cause I know having your OWN room is what most every kid wants. But in time they'll each have their own room.

I have 3 daughters 10, 4, & 2. I make sure my oldest gets her own room for her own privacy from the babies! The two younger ones are practically inseperable, so them sharing a room has never been a problem. LOL, they still all three migrate to either ones room at night when they go to sleep, I find them all three in the same bed! I would think the two older ones would be able to share a room, but now that I think about it they probably need their space more. Maybe you could continue allowing your 16 year old her own room, and let the 14 & 6 year old share, but divide the room with room dividers, or those bamboo large window(glass sliding door) blinds to give each one their own space so to speak. Me and my sister had to do this when we were younger, and it worked out quite well for us. You could even divide the room very neatly with some sheets, pinned to the ceiling, use the furniture as dividers as well. Use your imagination, or let the kids use theirs for a comfortable compromise.

Well, considering the differences in ages between your kids, I would have given your youngest daughter her own room and put the teenagers in together. My reason for doing this would be that your teenagers might like to stay up later than the little one, and at least the little one can go to bed at an appropriate time without being woken by the other two. Also, the other two could invite some of their friends up to their rooms to listen to music or whatever.

Hi cupoftea, I grew up with 4 brothers and sisters. Who had their own room would change frequently, my Mom's rule was who ever could keep thier bedroom area the cleanest got the single bedroom. If the child with the singel bedroom started not keeping it clean, the room was up for grabs for another kid. It worked for us. Maybe you too?

i personally think the olderst child needs their own room. older children need more privacy and independence compared to a young child.

I have my own room no one will entry into my room, mine only cleaning mine only washing even my parents also restricted inside my room. when m not in home i will lock. i have all kind's of media player, Computer, TV every thing is inside my room. i don't want to go out side for any thing. my room is just like A to Z arranged.

I'd leave them like that or see if they can come up with their own solution. Kids can be very resourceful :) It's tough. I was the middle child and shared a room with my sister until I was 14, when my dad made a small room for me off of our shared room, using attic space. My brother, of course, had his own room.

I think the oldest should. Kids usually need/want more privacy as they get older. There are also usually more priviliges with being older. The middle child usually gets stuck in the middle though.

Its not that all children should have seperate rooms.If you can afford its fine but if you cant see that all them have one room in common.Afterall teenager need it.That too girls.
