Does this sound fair to everyone, it's causing a riot in our house
So DC1 is nearly 10, at a funny age and likes to draw and play on her own rather than join in with the others anyway plus her toys tend to be quite compact, ds lite's etc.
I want her in the box room.
The next 2 are just 22 months apart, same sex and do get along very well, like to play Silvanian family etc so toys are bulky and like the same stories at bedtime.
So I'm thinking next biggest room for them.
But of course DC2 and 3 are both outraged that they have never had their own rooms and are now never likely to for the forseeable future.
Poor DC4 hasn't even arrived yet, but for once in my parenting life I really wanted to have a nursery with nice border and matching bedding etc etc.
DH thinks this is a waste of time and we should have bubs in with us in a cotbed until it's 2 and until then let DC2 and 3 have their own rooms.
What do you think ? I can't see them at 10 and 8 being anymore willing to go back to sharing and I can also imagine decorating the rooms, organising them and then after 1 night them missing each other.
