How important is it for the kids to have their own bathroom?

Naide

Blimey! We had an outside loo and no bathroom. Bath night was on sunday, the youngest got dunked first and worked upwards to the eldest ones getting a bath on their own - for obvious reasons. When we moved to a council house we had two toilets and one bathroom upstairs. We thought we'd died and gone to heaven!!

Look here , we don't live in the 1930's now. many people have multiple bathrooms, its not excessive.

suki, many of the arguments revolve around 'bathroom hogging' and one or the other being accused of using the others ones 'products'.

Indeed , I could enjoy a holiday in Somalia , but telling a man who has every day problems that other people have worse problems, does not diminish the fact that I have a problem!

1. Bathroom hogging - each person has an allocated time - once that time is up - the next person storms the door .... that way people soon learn to use their time wisely!

2. Other people's products - simples - people take their products into the bathroom - and then bring them out once they have finished! Anything left in the bathroom is fair game.

3. "Holiday" in Somalia - take a reality check! A man whose main problem is spoiled brats squabbling over who uses which ablution facilities does not reside in the Real World.

Just get over yourselves. A more pathetic, self-centred thread have I yet to experience. What a lot of selfish people you have spawned.

Or maybe you all are so posh that your !!!!!! don't stink!!

I suspect you are a hairy troll or at the least someone who is bored. In anycase if its so important for your children to have a bathroom each, you'll need to work hard to get a massive promotion, or take a second job working nights or better yet, send the little darlings out to work at Macdonalds so that they can pay towards a new house with multiple bathrooms. And no bathroom envy here - we have a main bathroom and an ensuite and in our new house we'll have 3 of the damn things to clean.

My kids all have their own rooms , but only one has an en suite, the others are complaining that having to share the guest bathroom is an issue

I don't think it is important at all and they sound very ungrateful. If a child of mine behaved like that there'd be trouble. Can't you move the eldest into the spare bedroom and then none of them would have an en suite? I really think you need to talk to your children as they sound very spoilt. This isn't from someone who is jealous, as I live in a lovely house, but from someone who expects a certain amount of manners from their children whether they are 4 or 24.

The parent tod123 sounds spoilt:oCan see where the kids get it from.

We all share one bathroom and one bog. No problem. Infact, if we had an ensuite room, i'd keep it as a guest room and we'd still all share the family bathroom
