Ok soyou had somegood points in answer to mylast question but there are some things I'd like to ask?
1:One of you said'what if they want to do their homework in peace?'
Well for one that would not make a difference if they were different or same sexes,and for 2 they can always take it inturns or do homework in dining room, my room, living room
2: They will be curious about each others genetalia after a certain age.
It seems to me that the curiosity would come at avery young age say 3 or 4, and that by 9 or 10 any normal child who has been brought up properly would definitely not want to view the others genetalia. If they did they would need psychological help
3. They would want privacy from eachother:
That would happen whether they were same or different sex and can be resolved by a partition curtain, an hours private time in the room pre day, and teaching tolerance and patience.
Any thoughts?

You have some very good points but I would not be happy having my same sex children share a room let alone my opposite sex children, its just one of those things I think.

Some good feed back there. I think, that they can share a room up to a certain age, just like bathing them together.
Theres a point though that has to be made where they will need their privacy, both mentally and physically especially in different sexes.
Its easier to argue that about the same sex, however boys and girls are different. And so are times. There are more cases nowadays involving children being molestered by their families and this is what makes our generation more skeptical and nerving about this whole debate.

as some have said, its law that after 10/11 diff sex siblings cant share room.
its law for very good reasons.
your family may be very open and balanced etc, but many are not.
plus it just doesnt feel right. i'm a very laid back liberal parent but i would not condone or encourage it. my kids are all female, but now my eldest is 12 she has her own room. if we have to move to a smaller house we have dcided as parents that we would have a sofa bed in sitting room to allow this arrangement to continue.
hope you now agree that at a certain age, diff sex kids need diff rooms!

UK law states that it is illegal for brothers and sisters to share a room once the eldest is 11 years old. End of story. No arguments.

Most boys wan---k themselves to sleep each night checking out porn.
I cant ssee the girls comforatbale with this or happy to use their vibrators with brother in the room whislt kissing a poster of a pop star.
You really need to think in graphic terms like that.
Likewise cant see either happy if the daughter is cleaning sheets as period came early.
Likewise how the boy would feem having a hard on with the sister in the same room.
not to mention the grief they would get in school.
And you operate like this there is the danger they may develop sexaul feeligns for each other.
happy to walk in on your children having sex or her bowing him?

if you are going to put up a partition for the sake of privacy then you might as well put them in different rooms
also i shared with my older sister and we were so different it didn't really work, i never wanted to be in my own room cos she was in there, plus we had different tastes in music and as she was the older one she got to listen to hers and i didn't,
when her friends came round i was banished from the room. it was like it was her room, not ours, and i was just getting in the way.
the only thing we had in common was our taste in clothes, we both dressed in black, a bit goth-ish, and we jointly decided to do the room up in black, grey and white.
we aren't close, even now, but i think if we hadn't had to share a room we would probably be good friends.
