Was it common to share a bed with a sibling when you were growing up?

It was normal in the USA when my grandma was growing up, and normal In England when my mom was growing up there.
Since I have eight siblings, I share a room, but also a bed with one of my sisters. One of her friends just come over and said, "oh. Like little house on the Prairie" 😂

@ronisme1 we used to have three of those. Then we gave one to my Aunt and now my sister and I share a full bed. I sorta miss my own bunk tbh lol. Two bunks and a full bed in one bedroom is crowded

@AmmieBell that is crowded but bunk beds with a older brother led to great fights. He would throw gtoss things down on me and i would put my legs straight up and kick him and the mattress to the floor. We both got beat afterwards but it still was fun and we still loved each other

@ronisme1 Sounds easier to just share a bed so I can shove my sister off and act like it was an accident lol
