If you’re sharing a room with someone what’s the latest time u should be making noice?

I share a room with someone she’s usually in bed by 9:30pm and I have a kid and we are usually settled in bed by 11pm. Am I wrong for this or is this rational?

Yeah I would say as soon as someone is going to bed all the noise should stop. In this specific situation 9:30 at the latest.

This isn’t an answer to your question, it’s just a question I have

Are you in a situation where there’s common spaces you could be in instead of inside the shared room?

I wouldn’t be making noise after another person was trying to sleep, I think that’s rude. Especially since they are an adult and you are the one with a child, surely they should be settling down too.

There is no one right answer. This is super personal and unique to your circumstances.

Has your room mate suggested to you that she has a problem??

If not, then, no worries

If she has, it's worth considering whether you can go to bed a little earlier. But to be honest it can be impossible to keep a small child quiet at bedtime 🤣

What does the person you’re sharing the room with say?

Yeah… Our kids are in bed by 8:30 and I read them a bedtime story until 9… They’re children and should be wind down for sleep.

11 is quite late for a little one over that overnight waking time schedule. So yes you should try to accommodate the room mate and readjust by atleast an hour. Ideally would be great if kid could be asleep before but if not an hour plus as a maximum. As well depends on y'all relationship and what age the kid is too.

This feels quite niche tbh! Why are you sharing a room? Why isn't your child in bed earlier than 11pm?

If I knew someone else was asleep I'd be keeping as quiet as possible.
