    Non-sibling opposite sex children forced to share the same room.
    My daughter is 9 and is forced to share a small bedroom with my ex-wife's boyfriend's son who is 7. What is the age is this sort of thing become illegal and what can I do to enforce it if it is illegal? :confused: By the way, I live in California

    Have you talked to your ex about getting the children their own rooms? You can try to call the department of family and children and ask them what the laws are in your area because each state is a little different. If they see fit they can open an investigation and if not they will at least let you know how your state rules.

    Not really a "law" but will be rules that children and family services will look at. You can use it as grounds for a action on custody if you wish to try and take them to court

    Family Law in California?
    Does anyone know the law, if there is any, about non-sibling, opposite sex children sharing the same bedroom?

    Please don't start multiple threads for the same issue. I've merged the threads for you.

    As far as I know there is no law governing this. There may be guidelines for public housing projects and children's services agencies amy say something about it. But its not illegal.

    Frankly, I don't see a problem with this at this point. In another couple of years maybe.
