[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the older sibling no longer gets the biggest room? (I'd be pretty disappointed too)

12x12 is not small, the boys would be fine sharing it.

She moves to the basement in 3 or so years, when they'll be 7/8.[/quote]

The oldest sibling gets the biggest room when everyone has their own room. If two kids share the get the bigger room. Let me guess, you were the oldest?[/quote]

DP. Not when there’s a bathroom.[/quote]

Why on earth not[/quote]

Because it’s a different privilege, and the oldest should have it first. If the 4yo is the next one, he’ll be 7ish, and will receive it at an earlier age. If the 11 yo is next, the 4 yo will be 11ish when it’s his turn(just 1 year older than his sister is now).[/quote]

This would be true if all the kids had their own room and you were assigning them each one room.  Sure, then the oldest gets the biggest room.  But 2 kids are SHARING a room.  There is no reason to cram them into a smaller space when this 11 year old girl STILL GETS HER OWN ROOM ALONE.[/quote]

They’re LITTLE KIDS and will still be 7- when the configuration changes. It’s absurd to give the ensuite bathroom to a baby and a preschooler when there’re older siblings.[/quote]

Who cares if it's in the room or in the hallway? You would rather have a one child get her own bathroom and 3 children share than 2 kids share one bathroom and 2 share the other? Do see how unfair it is when you think of it in these terms? I also guarantee that if we were talking about four boys or 2 young girls + 2 older boys, your opinion would not be the same. GUARANTEE IT.

But it’s not 3 kids sharing a bathroom full-time.  Two kids share all the time and 1 kid has her own.  The fourth child visits, he doesn’t live there.[/quote]
