+1  This is my thought as well. Dorm room is a shared space and while DC certainly has the right to ask it is a bit of an imposition.[/quote]

But it also gives the other person space to ask for privacy too.  This is SO common in schools--I can't believe there's anyone objecting or thinking it's an imposition. It's a basic thing roommates work out so they have some privacy sometimes.  [/quote]

Seriously. Part of living in the same room as someone is figuring out how to communicate and problem-solve. In absolutely no world is your son being rude by asking if it's possible for the roommate to leave. Of course it is well within the roommate's rights to say no but there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking. [/quote]

If anything the roommate  could be seen as being kind of rude/oblivious by being there all the time.  Most kids pick up on the basic flow that you try and give your roommate some space, even without being directly asked. [/quote]

The roommmate is in no way being "rude/oblivous" by being in the space that HE pays for.  [/quote]
