    I think it is nice that you have bought her new linen & thought about that extra stuff to make the space nice for her, but without a door, I'm not sure that would offset the downside. I guess it depends on how reasonable she is. I'd probably be inclined to ask your parents to find alternative accomodation (hotel/tent in backyard whatever, or playroom if you must) and give DSD the "cupboard". Privacy is a big issue for teenagers (based on my limited experience of myself lol).

    Nope - no door! That's the downside. I think we may just put her in the cupboard afterall but I'll have to get a smaller bed so she can have room for a small wardrobe and bedside. I'll put my parents in the playroom with a divider.

    My mum has osteoarthritis so "roughing it" on anything less than a bed (ie, in a tent) won't work and, the nearest hotel is half hour away.
