I don't have to ask. Having your OWN bedroom and bed, and having the room furnished with your OWN THINGS--TV, Stereo System, Play Station, Computer System, Personal things, clothes, etc...and having your OWN bath room is more-or-less just an "expectation" for kids in our house. So I don't expect graditude--so I am sure if I asked, I probably would not receive any. That is just how our house is. Everybody just has their OWN.
I'm sure sharing at the Whitmore was an adjustment. But, that was fine--no real complaints except for having NO LINENS...sleeping on a filthy sleeping bag. Having 2 minute timed showers was bad, as was being constantly sleep deprived to accomodate Cheryl's marathon Group sessions. But there was no expression of gratitude for having a bed--that was just an "expectation."
