bedroom privacy, WOW, I WANT ONE FOR 5.99 ! Options

[demolished]

Is it okay if a child get to have his/her own room without sharing with another sibling?

my thoughts .....

POSiTiVE
yes - more privacy, child's feel safer, and comfortable w/out sharing.
no - more secure w/ another person, limited spaces and developed a child's level of respect other privacy.

NEGATiVE
yes -increase risk of danger hidden items, increase sexual items such as porn magazine, and dangerous diet magazine.
no - uncomfortable things that sibling does to you, sibling abuse you, sibling treat you like slaves, and etc ..


Share some of your thoughts.


edit.
child age is from 12-16

Everyone deserves to have privacy in a moral sense, but that doesn't entitle anyone to having their own room. Unless it's a toddler, having your own room is generally not a matter of privacy, but a matter of physical possibility (aka, there's four kids and 3 rooms in the house, SOMEONE's gotta share). Sharing a room with someone doesn't mean you have no privacy, as long as both of you can learn to respect each other, each person can have their own privacy in a shared room. I've done it, it's not that hard.

An excellent point. I'm not against each kid having their own room, but the party does end somewhere. When you go to college, you literally live in the same bedroom as someone else, day in and day out (unless you happen to have a single). You learn to adapt and work with the other person, and you learn to share space and private time. It's a good skill to have.
