Boys' Room - How We Fit 6 Boys in One Bedroom (Large Family, Small House Organization pt. 9)

We built 3 sets of twin-size bunk beds to make "rooms" within a room so each boy could have privacy and a personal space, but still be in one room.

[@leilanibarajas2557]

people are over thinking everything. she doing her best to give the boys their own space. i mean she said it was only a 2 bedroom house, and maybe she can’t afford a bigger home, but she put in the time and effort to give the boys as much personal space as possible. i once had to share a room with my siblings and our room wasn’t this cool but i was still happy. idk. i just think people need to lay off

[@nikan6683]

Leilani Barajas true I agree with you

[@squid2133]

But if you can’t afford a bigger home maybe you shouldn’t have that many kids.

[@emhapz]

VicGames Vt if she cares that much about keeping her home I’m not understanding why they just don’t add another room/bigger room to the house. As much as it’s nice that the kids get to spend a lot of time together, they’re going to need a space of their own, bigger than 7 by 4 feet.

[@jasminevaliente96]

@VicGames Vt and so what? My grandma bought a big ass house to accommodate all her kids and they were all gone by 21 the latest. Now it's just her and my little sister occasionally it's too much for her to clean and she moved so much to accommodate every new child then grandchild that this house doesnt have all that much sentimental value.

[@LimeChan1]

My family had a 2bd 1ba and all three of my siblings including me had to share one room. 💁 it was fun and we just moved to having our own rooms. Took 18 years but Im grateful

Andrea I had to come over to this video and comment because I just watched Tom’s video where he mentioned the negativity. I am a mom of 10 including 6 boys. Guess what? They share a room! Like your boys, my boys are very happy, sweet, well behaved, grateful boys! People don’t realize what they are missing. Love your family! Thanks for taking the time to make videos

I have mixed feeling about this, its creative BUT what happens when they get older and they want their own room and won't fit into those "beds" not hating just wondering what your plans are

[@Kitten-fw7ks]

I think they're normal size beds so they'd probably still fit in there. And I'd honestly love to have a room like this!

[@randomuser7543]

@kitten they are twin bed and that's pretty small especially since her oldest is 6 feet. Like I'm 5,11 and my feet hang off my queen bed.

[@kakashiwithoutmask]

They're twin size. All of my siblings and I slept in that size until we move out. My tallest brother is 6'3" and he has no complaints!

[@TomMillsFamily]

I built these beds to be convertible, the bottom shelf comes out and an extra long twin mattress fits in, but even without it it's fine. I was 6'2 in 10th grade and slept on a regular twin mattress just fine, all the way until I moved out.

if you are reading this comment now, please don't be snarky or mean spirted. Andrea passed away yesterday. She was pregnant with their 10th child and began not feeling well.

[@christiedecker2724]

We only had 4 children, all sons, and I wish we'd thought of something like this, it is fantastic. I wish my parents had thought of something like this...4 girls, 4 boys...we had traditional bunk beds back then (I'm in my 60's and the oldest of us all) but I did color code my sons' toothbrushes, cups, some other things, let them give me their favorite colors for the older two, and assigned the younger two their colors per what I could find...it works! They are grown now, they all seem to like the same color..but they have their own homes, so that's OK. Blessings! OH and great job!!!

Best on a buget making her kids feel good and feel like they have there own room. And i like the fact that she did that and made the room. Fun even if its small. And let them pick thier own decor in side there beds. And i like the fact. That this boys are gonna spend time with each other. And dont have to much toys. Like kids now a days have ps4 xbox one and wat i see is a simple. Room yes true small but homie like she said. But if u look very good. They not that small. Looks like twin size matters in there. She took a small space and made a great room. Small simple. But great idea

[@mandygrace8715]

For them they can always just close the curtain and put some headphones in and they have like there own room and privacy...like its not as good as having your own room but with a family of 9 you can't let everyone have there own room and this way they don't have to decide who has to share and who gets thee own

[@Minecrafter9425]

I agree about the colour; the dark colour makes the room look smaller than it is. Although on the other hand some people like me sleep better when the room is really dark, so maybe it makes sense.

None of us don't want to be together, and if we REALLY need to be alone, the curtains have always been sufficient for privacy. Our room is not that dark, it just looks that way on the video.

If anyone truly watches your channels and Children’s Interactions over the years they will realize you and Tom have done a great job raising your kids. They are happy, kind and considerate. I’ve watched many of your videos and if your home is a prison to your children it’s obviously a very happy one. I’m sorry you have such stupid comments that you must weed through but thank you for being you. You make a difference.

[@SG-jh8ff]

I don't have the slightest clue why there are so many haters here!? If you don't like it then go watch a different video lol it's simple! This is a BRILLIANT IDEA! I wanted to be a critic too at first bc I didnt think it was 'right' jamming that many kids in one room. But if you actually watch the ENTIRE video and LISTEN with your EARS and not with your MOUTH, you will note that she not only answers every question, but goes into explicit detail in each of the comments elaborating upon this incredible room design concept. Ive personally never seen anyone accomplish such an OUTSTANDING job at engineering a private personalized space for their children on a minimalist budget and with little to no expenses. Her videos are to help educate others that may also have the same structural limitations and a large family. That's what youtube is for most of the time. To HELP eachother. We need to UPLIFT eachother and SUPPORT one another! 😄😄 @Andrea Mills your hubby and you did a PHENOMENAL JOB!

[@SG-jh8ff]

P.s. I would LOVE to know how y'all built the Lego ceilings!? They are just too cool for words!

[@TheMillsFamilyVlog]

We used thin MDF to cut the squares and thicker MDF to cut the circles. I painted everything and then Tom glued to circles to the squares and screwed them to the ceiling. Then I touched up the paint to cover up the screws. They were very simple to make.

Sarah Sunshine Same with me! I was like HOW are they shoving kids in a cubby. Once I saw it I thought it was an amazing idea and kinda wished I had a space like that >o

[@mimked]

I think it's awesome and would love to do something like this, but it wouldn't be legal in my town. Bedrooms are required to be 50+ sq ft per person (where I live). The room would have to be a little bigger to have 5 or 6 kids in it (probably just about enough for 4, though).

This is the very first video I ever watched of Andrea's. So thankful for the random KZbin recommendation that lead me to this channel. For 3 years Andrea has been such a blessing to me and my motherhood journey. She was such a wise, loving, gentle, and caring person. Such a loving wife and mother. She worked so hard to make every day, every event, every birthday, and every holiday making it special for everyone. I hope that all the kids can treasure these videos in years to come and see how much love their mother poured out on them. God bless you Mills family! You are in my prayers.

[@asialynn3845]

It's a nice set up while they're young but as they get older I see problems with privacy and just being crammed in that small room. It would be good for awhile though while you save up for a bigger house that can accommodate that amount of people. Very creative though I like it.

[@TheMillsFamilyVlog]

Our boys are 15, 13, 12, 10 and 5.

[@dapho6287]

My boys are 17, 12 and 11 and I don't have any complaints about them having to share a bedroom. Their room is about 18'x15' and they have a bunk bed for the younger boys and a queen bed for the older one. They might have a bit more space but they spend maybe an hour a day in their room, besides while sleeping. I love this idea!!!

[@dp_md]

nice use of space. personally I couldn't deal with feeling like I'm packed in like a sardine, but the idea is interesting.

[@barbarabrunson8605]

Oh my...hearing Andrea talking about the extra bunk bed would be for another boy if they ever had one was so terribly sad to me. It really jerked my heart strings knowing that when she left us, she was CARRYING that 6th son who would have been such a joy to Andrea and to the whole family. After the 3 girls in a row. The whole situation is sooo sad, even though Tom is doing an excellent job and the children are flourishing and seem happy. But there are some moments, like the bunk bed comment and also on Christmas with precious Baby Hannah looking at Andrea's pictures and saying Mama. I think about ALL those type of things that Tom hears or observes on a daily basis, and poor guy....How does he DO it??? Yes, they are still a beautiful family, a remarkable family, without Andrea....but that family will NEVER be the same. What a shame. I pray for Tom and each one of those precious children every night. Miss you Andrea 💔

[@kimberlymayo9951]

Ignore the Tube trolls...making one area work for 5 kids...and could have a friend over is amazing! That they get to personalize their space and have some privacy is beyond ingenious. Oh wow Tube trolls they have a lived in look with some paint chips. My guess is your home's are over ridden with things you have not used nor seen in a year or more. Leave this woman alone for providing for her kids and doing it with flair. In the future if the kids taste change the color scheme will grow with them. Good gravy.

Answers to FAQs. (Edited 1/9/19) 1. We have 5 sons: Thomas (17), Asher (15), Judah (13), Justus (11) and Solomon (6). 2. We have 4 daughters: Eden (8), Sophia (5), Claudia (3) and Hannah (8 months). The girls share a different room. 3. These bunks are 90" long. We have twin mattresses in them, but they can accommodate XL twins, which are the same length as kings. 4. We have no plans to change anything at this point. Seven years ago we didn't have plans to do this, either. We deal with problems as they arise. If this becomes a problem, we'll deal with it. 5. We do not accept public assistance - including public schooling. We support ourselves with a home-based computer repair business. 6. We have a net worth greater than 75% of people our age. We didn't get there by being people who buy the biggest and best of everything. We are content with what we have and we try to find creative solutions to our problems. 7. We like our house. We bought it as newlyweds and 3 of our babies were born in it. We live in small town that doesn't have many bigger, better houses. All of that means we would rather customize our own house then start looking for the "perfect" one elsewhere. 8. It's so sad to me how many people have the basic assumption that the value of a human life is dependent on their possessions. (ie. if you don't possess x, y or z you'd be better off never having been born.) It's no wonder there is so much sadness and hopelessness in the world. You are enough just the way you are. I hope that at least some of you will finally understand that your relationship to your struggles in life is best met with personal competence, rather than commercial acquirement. If you do, you will understand why we do what we do, even if you'd rather make different choices for yourself.

@@TheMillsFamilyVlog, I applaud your patience. I have lost track of how many times you have had to respond to the same silly concerns over and over. If only they would take the time to pay attention they would all easily see that these beds are adult size beds inside areas big enough not only for the adult size mattresses but also big enough for a small amount of storage area as well - so they obviously are not tiny little cubbies.

Andrea Mills I'm very close to my sisters, maybe that has something to do with the fact that we shared the same bedroom as kids and still do when we come back home to our parents'. Growing up, we didn't have a lot of money but we were happy. My parents taught us right and made us understand the importance of family. They also made us understand financial responsibility. While money is good, it is not everything. I wish you and your family joy and happiness. Please don't judge my grammar, English is my second language.

most of the world only has a 1 bedroom, most families all sleep together in Russia and other parts of the world, however the western world has been accustomed to having Thier kids in different compartments of the house. I feel it's okay until the kids turn 7 then I'd put them in Thier own rooms.

[@TheMillsFamilyVlog]

Houses aren't free. We could buy a big one but we'd have to say goodbye to having a dad that gets to spend lots and lots of time with us because his life would be reduced to working long hours paying back the bank.

Erby, it's strange that you think we should've chosen to have fewer children so that the remaining ones could have more privacy. I'm sure that Judah, Justus, Eden, Solomon, Sophia, Claudia and any future Mills children would vehemently disagree with you. For that matter, I'm sure if you asked our oldest two - Thomas and Asher - if they'd rather have their own rooms than a house full of siblings they'd think you're a sad person for even asking such a thing. If anyone is cruel, it's you who deems 6 children as better off dead than having to share a bedroom.
