| What size and type of bed does your teen boy have? |
|
A twin.
It’s what me and my brother had. It’s more than a lot of kids around the world have. |
| Full. I don't think it matters though. Twin is fine too unless your child is too tall. |
|
Depends on how tall
Twin or full doesn’t work for anyone over 5’10” |
| Twin. If you are a tall family you can order a Twin XL -- that is what the college dorms have |
| A twin |
| Twin. I think about how two people slept in the dorm’s twin beds but we did it. I had one bf who weighed about 200 lbs, a foot taller than me. I weighed 100 lbs so there was three hundred pounds in the bed. |
| Full for a growing 5’10”. Yeah his feet hang off but he likes to sprawl out diagonally |
| Each kid was given a twin bed when they moved out of a crib. They stay in that until they go off to college. |
| Full bed. That is what the crib converted into. |
| Queen—used to be the guest bed. DS is 6’3” so glad we had it to give him. |
That’s ridiculous. My 6’3” husband can sleep in a full. He can’t share it but he can fit in it on his own. |
| We got my son a Full XL. He’s 5’9” in 8th grade but still very much growing. It works well. |
|
Sort of relieved to see all these twin responses.
I feel like the last time this came up, everyone acted like anything less than full or queen was basically neglectful. |
So what do tall kids do in college when a twin is all that’s offered? |
