no
I would think so since she is so young. As a teacher and with a degree in child development it would be better for the child to have her own room. At three her stage of development is learning independence from the parents and care givers. She needs to sleep in her own room.
It, in my opinion, would be best to have separate rooms. Or the alternative is to have separate beds.
I would think, that if you HAVE the extra room, it would be a good idea for them not to share. If you only have one room for them, they will have to get used to the idea. I shared a room my entire life. When I was two, I shared with my eleven year old sisters and my five year old sister. We got along fine. But, like I said, if there IS an extra room for your oldest daughter, I would split them up. No way she would need her space!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In most states a 11 year old and a five year old can share a room, even if they are not the same sex. However, the 11 year old may not enjoy having to share a room with a 5 year old.
The father is now 50 and the daughter is 25. Twenty years ago, the father was 30 and the daughter was 5. - M.Russell
No, she is too old to share a room with a 5 year old. As a preteen she is starting to develop and learn about herself in relationships to the world and other people. Life is confusing enough for a girl her age without having any privacy. A 5 years old doesn't understand giving another person space and is very egocentric. The teen is also egocentric and very concerned with looks, hair, clothes, and what others think. Together they will not be able to share a room for very long without problems.
It depends on who the child is sharing a room with. A child really wants their own spacearound 8 or 9, but if you have a 6 year old girl sharing a room with her 13 year old stepbrother, that could be a problem. Each situation is different. Usually the child will let you know.
No!
No, it is not.
It depends what the father and brother is like and if you feel that you can trust them. If you have any doubts whatsoever about this then no, its not alright. But if the father and brother are trust-worthy people and aren't absolute brutes or sexual offenders then that is alright, IF THE GIRL FEELS COMFORTABLE WITH THIS IDEA.
A 13 year old girl and an 18 year old girl can share a room. Sometimes, girls must share a room out of necessity. If this causes problems, then each girl should proclaim a side and keep their belongings there.
