Am I wrong for being upset about this?

Me and my little sister have shared a room for 10 years. I've always wanted my own room but I know that's probably never going to happen any time soon. It's winter now and extremely cold outside. Our room is freezing and she said we can't have a heater in our room because then she'll be hot. Everyone has told me to just wear a onesie and some socks but I'm still angry. I know when you have a roommate you need to compromise but I'm tired of compromising. What do you guys think

Get your own place if you're over 18.

@TallMtnMedic I don't have the money. I do have the credit to move though. Very ironic, right?

@Woofwoof15 you know I'm tired of people telling me to move out of my parents house. It took me YEARS to build good enough credit to even rent a place, and I'm still struggling to build myself financially. No one talks about credit or the things young adults need to actually do this shit. People just call us failures because at 18 we don't have two cars and a house

@Woofwoof15 Very. Well, is there a way to could pay your mom a little so you can have a say? Like rent? That is until you can move.

Sorry , I had no idea you was going through that. Legally your parents arent even obliged to give you an place to live , you might have to wait until you can move out or go into shelter. It sucks but hard times dont last ❤️

@TallMtnMedic Please note, i dont think of you as a loser, i know seversl people that have had to do the same. The economy is crap as it is, and not getting better.

@Woofwoof15 i do talk to my grandkids about having a checking acct. And maintaining a + balance in that acct. I tell them about cars and the insurance they need to keep on that car.....rent and all the other things they should do....honestly you need to grow up its not rocket science nobody exspects you to have two cars and a house at 18
