What about self pleasure rules? Bathroom only perhaps.

Have you asked the 15 & 17 yr old as they are the ones most likely to find it gross

If it was me, I would agree with this, but I know of two lots of siblings in their early twenties that still share a room on holiday. Nothing wrong with it, just down to personal preference.

I stopped sharing a room on holiday with my brother when I was ten ... he used to talk in his sleep ... scared the life out of me!

I would be scared of holidaying in Hull now though (then again, I'm scared of Hull full stop) ... would the overcrowding police come and get you?

Do you think it's acceptable for a 15 year old girl and 17 year old boy, both brother and sister, to share a hotel room to keep the cost down.

Just wanted your opinions, ta v much

Are we talking hotel room rather than a bedroom in an apartment?

If it is a hotel, then it's up the discretion of the hotel by and large.
The a lot of hotels will not let a room where there isn't someone of the age of 18 staying in the room. They wouldn't have a problem with them being brother and sister sharing a twin room as it isn't their full time place of residence, but the age thing may be an issue.

Acceptable to WHOM ?

If you as a family are happy with it-it's acceptable-if one or both of the kids aren't -then it isn't.

The hotel policy is a non issue-if they make a fuss (which they won't) you just tell them it's an adult in each room with a minor.

To keep the cost down , yes of course it's OK. We've had siblings sharing a room. We've also had a girls room and a boys room with my husband and I not sleeping in the same room - (only one night - on a sleeper train abroad). We've had our twenty year old share a room with us. It is of course all down to finances and how much grief you get or are prepared to put up with, but I really think for a holiday it's fine. Lets face it when they are students at uni how many people would they try to get away with sleeping in a travel lodge or tent to keep costs down?!

I'd say it's fine if the children are happy. Me perosnally would have hated it as I was very self couscious about my body etc. as a teen and unlike both my sisters and brother who thought nothing of wandering around upstairs in undies I always had my dressing gown on:o

In my experience some different cultures don't see it as acceptable as we do.

I've had 'issues' (albeit very minor ones) in Turkey where they thought my ex-girlfriend was my sister (not an ex-girlfriend at the time coz that would be weird :rotfl:). :undecided

I think anyone who thinks there is something wrong with it is the one with issues.

Its perfectly fine, normal, acceptable and i really don't see why you want want clarification.
