phathui5 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 My 11 year old daughter is currently sharing a room with our new 17 year old Japanese exchange student. We thought we were going to have her for a month while her host family was on vacation and it's probably going to be the rest of the school year (that's its own separate issue, ack). Ideally, the teenager would have her own room, but we now have six children and four bedrooms, so that's how it is. Before the teenager came, dd had lots of stuff in her room. I'm trying to rearrange it so that they both have space (dd had mentioned that she feels like teen took over the room). Right now, we have a bunk bed, desk, bookshelf, short dresser (used by teen), and dollhouse in the room, with another dresser (split by teen and dd) and shelves in the room's closet. I want dd to be able to have friends over and hang out in there while teen is at school (dd is homeschooled) and provide space for them to play. Teen asked me today why dd still has the dollhouse in there. Dd has friends that are in the 8-11 range, she's small and tends to hang out with kids who are a little bit younger. Anyway, what do your 11-12 year old girls have in their rooms? How do you organize things? Anyone have a teen and preteen sharing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
