So, 14 yo dd bedroom is extremely small (only has a bed, wardrobe and bedside table in and to add to issues has a very low ceiling and is L-shape!) and she gets very down over it. Apparently ALL of her friends bedrooms are massive, with double beds, sofas etc. She gets invited over to theirs for sleepovers and loves them but won't invite anyone back due to embarrassment of them being uncomfortable/having to make do in a very small space. I have said to her to just invite them (if they're real friends they won't mind, it's part of the fun etc!) but she just won't.
I've suggested alternatives such as:
- having the living room where we have a sofa bed
-using brothers when he's not here, but would defeat object of sleepover as not together.
What else can we do to make things easier? She can't have a desk in there so can't work or do her homework in her room, can't have sleepovers, is uncomfortable.
I feel so bad as she is often crying over this. I worry the upset is not just over this though....
TIA MUMSNETTERS! X
