A woman and her boyfriend recently purchased their first home together, but they’re already facing a dilemma. The boyfriend’s four-year-old daughter, Kate, from a previous relationship, visits them often. In their new home, there’s only one spare bedroom, and the woman wants it to be a guest bedroom rather than Kate’s personal space. The couple’s disagreement has led to a heated debate, with the woman questioning the fairness of reserving a room for someone who isn’t there most of the time.
