[quote=Anonymous] I'm not American, and in my European country, a lot of hotels still have twin beds. I was shocked when my middle schooler had to share a bed with a classmate on a school-sponsored trip. No one had told us in advance, because apparently it's the norm here. My middle schooler was not happy either. In his room, no one wanted to share beds, so one slept on the floor, and another in two armchairs. I believe that was the case in a lot of other rooms. I find it exceedingly strange that Americans, with their loud emphasis on personal space, something other countries don't talk about as much, find it acceptable that students (who usually aren't even that close) to share a bed. This is very different than a sleepover situation, and even during a sleepover, a lot of kids, boys in particular, don't want to share beds. [/quote]
