To think my sister’s children should share a bedroom?

[agorina]

Going on a week away in the UK with dsis’ family.

There are 4 ‘kids’, two of mine, and my sister’s two.

There are three bedrooms for between the four.

We used to do this holiday every year, but have not for the last two years.

My kids (!) are aged 23 (m) and 26 (m). Dsis kids are 15(m) and 17 (f).

Every other year, my youngest son, and his male cousin have shared a room. Now that my ds is 23 and has moved out etc, he’s said he’s not keen on sharing. My eldest ds gets his own room, as does my niece. My niece has already assumed that she is getting her own room.

AIBU to think that my sister’s kids should share a room seeing as they are closer in age?

Of course the only girl should get her own room... personally I'd expect your two to share if it were me, seeing as they are brothers

You can't expect a teenage girl to share her bedroom with a male

Regardless of relationship teenage girls and boys shouldn't have to share IMO 🤷‍♀️

Don’t be ridiculous why would a mixed pair share when you have 2 of the same sex who could share . If yours don’t want to share then they can always choose to not go seeing as they are both adults .

Girl has own room. Boys fight it out

No way would I expect a 17yo girl to share with a 15yo boy. Brother or not! Yabvvu.

Why aren’t your two boys sharing? That’s obviously them clear choice

Why can’t your adult sons share a room?

Your two lads should share.
Blokes that age go away all the time and share rooms so I don’t see it being a problem!

No way a 17 year old female should be sharing with a male and vice versa for the 15-year- old boy to be honest.

I’d expect your two sons to share, I’d not expect the mixed sexed teens to do so.

Adult brothers can share
I still share sometimes with my sister, we're 36 and 41, for a week they're not going to disintegrate because they share a bedroom.

@Marmite27

I also wouldn’t expect your 23 year old son to share with his 15 year old cousin.

Your sons are the same sex and closer in age and should be sharing IMO.

I agree with this.

I’d have to say though trying to argue that your sisters kids being closer in age than your two is really pushing it, 😂

Your two sons need to share, it’s the obvious correct solution.

@ArchieStar

I call reverse actually, no one can think it reasonable that two teenage siblings of the opposite sex share a room.

Absolutely agree

Of course the girl shown it have to share! I would have thought the most sensible sharing would be your two sons, the brothers. Or you choose accommodation with one more room.

Are you kidding? Why should her children have to share because yours do not want to! 23 and 26! They need to stop acting like spoilt children and you need to stop pandering to them!

Boys share. If 23 yr old doesn’t like it he can sleep on the sofa or bring a tent.

*should not

I agree with AmyFI,because of their ages.

Your youngest son may not want to share with a teenage cousin, but he could easily share with his brother. They're both adults.

@ArchieStar good spot! She nearly got it past me but yeah l think it’s a reverse

Why don't you sleep in with your sister?
Yabu.

Your two DS should share a room.

Girl gets her own room, boys can fight it out amongst themselves.

Yabu!

No, you don't make the 17 year old female share with the 15 year old male when there are two males in their 20s who can share. Not rocket science, is it.
