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.

It was such a fun time when we were working on this room. Each of the boys got a turn to go shopping and pick out paint, bedding, etc. They were all so excited for their new room!

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. Doctors found cancer cells on her liver and gallbladder. She miscarried the baby and died within 36 hours of that. Prayers and good thoughts with this family, they have a tough road ahead.

[@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.

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.

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).

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.

[@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.

[@citrus7745]

my absolute favorite part of it is the individuality. if someone were to only watch the first minute or so they think its a super strict boring home with no self expression for the kids but when you started pulling back the curtains and showed each "room within a room" it really shows that you're committed to raising humble young men who have their own personalities as opposed to being all completely the same. its a small space but you worked with it and let your kids choose how they wanted to have their space be and its super cute.

I wish you know how much you opened my mind, how you made me see the beauty & uniqueness of you & your family even if I have different views in life.. I can feel your warmth and love.. which made me believe in you and in whatever you want to do even if my choices in life are different. And today, I have more respect for people's choices in life thanks to you. By the way, I never comment on videos but I saw few rude comments so I wanted to spread some love 💜

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.

Let me clear up the most common questions on this video. The beds are the size of half a king sized bed. I'm 15, am 5 foot 10, and I can sit up and lay down just fine. 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. The audio Bible is great. It's a never ending bedtime story. All of us kids are happy living in this room.

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.

[@colaw77]

This was my first Mills family video ever, and now I've made a number of friends that I never would know without having seen it. Some, including the family, I've had the privelege of meeting in person...and some are on the other side of the world. It amazes me how people can be an encouragement, support, etc. via technology and the internet. I pray that many, many more will be blessed through the sharing of this family's life and testimony.

[@Serendipity86UK]

Colour coded children, that's interesting, lol. I feel sad for your boys that they all have to share such a tiny room, but you're obviously good parents and trying your best for your kids and I think what you have done with the room is really awesome and impressive :)

OMG! Why is this comment not at the top. Appreciative, I like how you see the world. Unlike other people here talking about teenage stuff (I understand them I'm 15 and a boy! i need Privacy as well).

[@looneylightning1429]

I'm fourteen, and I'm the youngest of eleven siblings, no twins, none adopted! AND when I was five years old, I became an aunt! I now have eighteen nieces and nephews! It's like a party at our house everyday. It's so fun! And all of my siblings are amazing, incredible people. My mom is a superhero. Now there are only six people living in my house, so I have my own room. Having a big family is hard though because I don't even really know my oldest brother. He is thirty five, that is the ONLY downside of having a big family in MY opinion😃

Looney Lightning I'm the youngest of 3, but I'm 12 and my brother is 27, one of my sisters is 20, and my other sisters are in their 30s. I don't really know my oldest sisters either, they never lived in my house because they aren't my mom's kids, so I barely see them. But I know that the older one has a son a few months older than me, so I've been an aunt my entire life😂 I also have a niece and nephew from my brother, and my niece is almost 2 and my nephew just turned 4 a few days ago

[@estherleclaire2626]

You guys worked so smartly about this room! The space is used really well, and not a bit of space was wasted!

[@DoubleDTVx2]

Love this concept, honestly the only thing I'd change would be the wall color--I once had my room a dark blue color, not too far off from the one in the video, and whenever we repainted to a lighter color, it made my room seem MUCH bigger! A beige or something would look nice, neutral, and make the room seem bigger. Still a fantastic vid!

[@Glorydancer333]

I am finding this beautiful family after Andrea's passing. I find them all to be remarkable and so loving to each other. All the material wealth in the world would never have created such character and kindness as I have witnessed as I watch this treasure of their daily life. And their father is such an amazing and talented man. So much love went into the creation of these awesome beds and the creativity and organization throughout the house and in their chosen lifestyle is so evident. The individuality of each child was taken into careful consideration. I bet any visitor to the boy's room would envy that setup. Their mother left a lasting legacy of love through these wonderful videos, and Tom will do the same through his. May God comfort and bring peace to each one.

[@stormthrush37]

Once you've seen the crazy prices of real estate, this starts making A LOT more sense. And as for space, you adapt. You don't live in your bedroom, and spend a lot more time outdoors and in common areas. This was very common thinking up until very recently, and still is in large parts of the world.

[@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.

[@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!!!

[@imsunshine20]

[@emilyk7680]

I notice there isn't a video on the girls' room/s in your playlist, are you planning to do one or is there a video hiding somewhere else? Is it a similar set up or something different?

[@morgantherat4252]

I personally don't like this idea with 5 kids in 1 room because I can barely live with my younger sister that I share a room with but this is a really cool room and I would recommend painting it a light color if it gets cramed 😊

[@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]

MorganTheRat 4 And some people on the other hand live on the street

[@junbh2]

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.

[@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.

[@jessicadurrant618]

Also, I noticed many very hurtful and rude comments concerning how many children you have. I hope you know that you are amazing at being a mother and that these people don't understand from a spiritual point of view how children are so precious and that God has blessed you with them. I cannot believe we live in a world where people actually feel the need to tell you how many children you should and should not have. Shame on them.

[@TheMillsFamilyVlog]

I appreciate your comment. I started this channel because I wanted to help and encourage other families in our situation. In the last two weeks, this video jumped from about 20,000 views to over 120,000 views and the amount of horrible comments has skyrocketed. I knew this was going to happen, but it's still very unpleasant. I truly appreciate your encouragement.

[@violet3002]

i remember watching this video a few years back. it got recommended to me again, so i though i would rewatch it. i really enjoyed this channel and Andrea’s content, it made me excited for the future and for when i become an adult and have a family of my own. now that i found out that she passed, i am so heartbroken. she has a special place in my heart and her spirit will always be with me ❤️

[@ClaudiaSketches]

It is certainly cramped but I think you've done a good job. Personally I would've used a lighter colour paint to help reflect light around the room (would make it feel a lot bigger), but I understand that one might want to avoid light colours with 5 children in that room! I really like how each child has their own personal space-sure, it would feel more open with standard bunk beds but I think that having an area to call their own is SO important.

[@foreverfabulous6770]
