I have a son 3yrs and daughter 18mnths and live in 2bed bungalow. Have tried to move 2 3 bed house but all fell through and wasted lots of money. Can't face it again also can't really aford bigger house in this area. DS starts school next yr so don't want to move out of area once at school. Can we manage in a 2bed bungalow until they leave home? At what age do boys and girls need seperate rooms and how much space do older kids need? Any advice and experiences welcome. J

My ds and dd are 5 and 2.5 and still share. In fact, when we move to a bigger house they will probably still share as they like it. Don't worry about it yet.

My dad shared a bedroom w/two brothers and two sisters w/a sheet down the middle.

No one died or was permanently harmed by it.

Often enough, b/c it was a very warm climate, the boys slept out on the screened-in front porch.
