• In this story, a 16-year-old moved bedrooms in her dad and stepmom's house as a child, because she claimed she didn't like the space. After a few years, the stepmom decided to use her own money to renovate it and turn it into an office and library for her personal use.

  However, once it was finished, her stepdaughter decided that she wanted to switch back to this room for her bedroom. The stepmom didn't feel this was appropriate, as she already had her own space, but her husband was backing up his daughter. She wondered if she was in the wrong.

• Am I overreacting for not wanting to give my step daughter the room I finished renovating?
