I was just thinking about this recently.

I started sleeping on my own very late (for various reasons). By "sleeping alone", I mean, sleeping on your own room. Ie, not with your parents or whoever who brought you up.

This is a bit of a weird thread

Cool

[The Entity]

Yeah, i think i was 9 as well actually.

[The Entity]

How old were you tobe?

[Welsh_insomniac]

Well, I had to share a room with a brother until I was 12 so it took a long time.

I can't remember the exact age, but it was early. I remember other people breathing next to me made me want to strangle them. It still annoys me. They may secretly be awake and plotting against me, so I sleep with one eye open.

My brother though still sleeps in our mum's bed, partly because at first there weren't enough beds in the house. He's 18 in a few days. If he doesn't start regularly using his own bed he's gonna go MJ and never be master of his own fate.

When do you start primary school? I think it was a year or two before that. Really can't remember though

[Fragile_Illusions]

Must be different for girls because I'm sure I've been sleeping alone since birth

[The Entity]

We had limited rooms in my old house, so i had to share with my Brother.

But when we moved house when i was 9, i got my own room.

I was about 8 because I had to share a room with my brother, but my parents converted the attic into a bedroom for my brother. Problem was, the entrance to the attic was in my room.

In my own room when I was about 3, I think

Until then I used to sleep in a cot in my parents' room

[Oziris]

I shared with my sister until my brother could sleep in a proper bed, then I shared with him until I went to uni at 19. Fun times.

[dotty_but_good]

When I was six my little brother came along so he moved into the bedroom with my middle brother and I got pushed out into the study.

[Yellow_Watermelon]

always slept on my own assumed this was normal guess not
unless We visited family or friends and they didn't have spare rooms for each of us

of course I know some share with brothers and sisters but the OP doesn't ask that so sleeping with your parents until 9 or something is a little strange.

[tobeamedic]

I was 16. Looking at some people's answers, I realize it wasn't a great deal

[Delta Aitch]

I had my very own bunk bed, so I started sleeping on my own in my big-girl bed at a very young age

[ChelseyElla]

I thought OP meant parents/guardians and not siblings. I've slept without my parents from 6months

[mel0n]

I have a really small house with quite a lot of people.. I shared with my sister till I was 17? 18?
