[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this a family or a princess and her court?  Each CHILD gets a small room and the family shares the larger one.

This right here. I’m surprised by some of the comments on this thread. They are children. The adults make the decisions.

Im bothered by the “DD will remember and be angry” comments. Perhaps what will really happen is that DD will learn that the smaller room is sufficient and we don’t always get every whim handed to us.[/quote]

Hahaha this made me laugh.  Are you an only child?  My siblings and I remember most things we perceived as unfair from my childhood despite the lesson my parents thought they were teaching.  We talk and laugh about them when we get together. So while not angry we remember and try to do better with our own
kids.  We all know and agree who our parents favorite is my parents disagree.[/quote]

I’m the PP. I am not an only child. No, things were NOT equal between my siblings and me, but my parents always had good reasons. I do not look back on my life with anger, and I never thought my parents loved another sibling more. I was raised knowing that my best interests were taken into account, and that they weren’t always the same as my siblings’ needs and interests.

We are all very well-adjusted adults now. You say you are trying to do better than your parents. That’s not the situation I find myself in. I’m trying to pass my parents’ lessons down to my children. [/quote]
