Answer:
There is no law that explicitly prohibits a 12 year old girl from sharing a room with two boys aged 10 and 7. While many people believe it is illegal, there are no specific legal restrictions on this arrangement. However, common sense suggests that at certain ages, boys and girls should have separate sleeping spaces for privacy and comfort. Generally, many would agree that a 12 year old girl should not share a bedroom or bed with younger boys.
