We live in an HA house that’s on a mainly owned estate. The houses are small but it’s a nice quiet place to live. We have given up our bedroom so our kids can have a bedroom each.
I’m embarrassed to have people round, especially play dates for my 8 year old and when they have been to others houses their houses are amazing. I’m aware this is probably a me problem and that most people wouldn’t be judgmental but I guess I’m worried about my child being embarrassed or even other kids saying things as they get older. We only have one large room downstairs and a very small kitchen so wanted our youngest to have their own room so that they could play in it and have friends round. I just feel like I get one job done in the house and find something else I’m not happy about.
Is it just that my child is friends with some well off people or are we an anomaly?
I’d love to have all new internal doors as I think it’d make a massive difference to how the house looks but it’s a big expense for a house we don’t own, and at the end of the day we will still only have a small house?
I really would love to just not care what people thought 😢
