I was wondering what if the 2nd child had been a girl? Would both kids still be sharing a bedroom and for how long?

If that'schild abuse then I guess our species has been abusing every child since the dawn of time before suburbia was invented. Not to mention people today who still do. Not ideal for most of course, but how much of a bubble do people live in to think its abuse?

Most of those tiny houses are quite expensive, I don't know why.

It's gotten trendy enough that rather than people doing it themselves and being resourceful and innovative, they're just paying someone else to build it for them and the someone else's are smart enough to capitalize on that.

I saw one that was selling for about $500,000 in Oregon. Maybe if someone is handy and can build it themselves, they could save. But otherwise, they cost much more per square foot than a regular house. Personally I find tiny houses fascinating and kind of neat.

Looks like the reason they don't have a stove is because that tiny house is just an extension of their parents house. A stove would make it a legal separate living space. I guess more taxes, etc.

Nothing in that video made me believe they do much more than sleep and get dressed in that space. They probably spend most of the day in the main house.

That's exactly what I assumed. Like I said, my friend who has an extension to live in built onto her mothers house with her child, spends a lot of time in the main house. I'm guessing they're the same way.
