If these other kids weren't penalized, my son shouldn't be, either.
When I was a young girl, I had the slightly bigger bedroom, but I was always jealous of my little sister’s grander windows. I’m sure my mom rolled her eyes when I mentioned it one day, and she probably thought that familiar refrain every parent knows well: no one is ever satisfied, and nothing is ever fair.
The point is, more than likely there will be some other attribute of the room or its furniture that will draw ire and indignation from either child, so unless you’re talking about a significant difference it’s probably not worth losing sleep over if the rest of the house is perfect for the family. Still, if it bothers you, there’s nothing that says the kids can’t share the large room and have the small room as a playroom or shared desk space.
We have different parenting styles, which is where my concern comes in. They often leave the nine-year-old home alone. We have the rule for our daughter that if there isn’t a parent home, she cannot be there. It seemed to work until today when the dad left the kids at home alone without telling them he was leaving. I noticed his car wasn’t in the driveway when I went to get the mail, and I asked my daughter to come home.
