[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think she should be able to move as soon as he goes away. Redecorate both.

you said she's the baby in the family. Are there other kids? Was the youngest always sharing or stuck with the smallest? [/quote]
middle child has a bigger room too.  problem is the older kids see their room as theirs.[/quote]

Do you hold the deed to the house or do they?

[b]All[/b] the rooms are yours. Distribute as you see fit.[/quote]

You allowed them to have this point of view. 
How do you want your children engaging with and treating each other in the future?  Is the oldest always enabled and getting his way?  At the cost of the youngest in some form?  
This behavior and treatment of each other will not change unless you do something.

Go read a few threads of family relationships - ask yourself how do you want your children to treat each other in the future?  Do you want your youngest to be the one saying that her oldest brother always got his way and still does?  [/quote]

THIS! You'll be saving future SILs and DILs all sorts of grief if you nip this in the bud now! Thank you in advance from future generations.[/quote]
