A Reddit user shares that he turned his daughter’s bedroom into a home office after she moved out and decided to live with her boyfriend. However, her boyfriend accepted a job abroad, and she didn’t want to go with him. So, she announced she’ll be moving back in with her parents.
The parents were okay with her moving back in. But, the daughter wasn’t happy living in the spare guest bedroom and wanted her original bedroom back.
What Makes This Room Special?
The original poster (OP) started working for a different company, and they allowed working from home. And, since his daughter was no longer using her room, it was a perfect opportunity for him to turn it into a home office.
He spends half of his job speaking to clients online. So, he needed a quiet place in the house. His daughter’s bedroom is ideal because it is on another floor and has a lot of privacy.
However, since moving back home, the OP’s daughter has been nagging him to give back her room. She, too, wanted the privacy that the space provided.
And, after refusing to turn his home office back to her room, the OP says his daughter is treating him like the enemy.

We IMMEDIATELY repainted our son’s bedroom PINK with flowery wallpaper after he moved out making it the guest bedroom and the other bedroom into a sewing room.
Sorry Charlie, you are NOT moving back in, PERIOD!
Maybe she’d prefer the basement?
My daughter, quit her job, and college and moved out with friends in an apartment. She traded her job as a pharmacists assistant, which was supported by the classes in college. She wanted to work at Starbucks.
I actually tore out the wall to her bedroom, and made the living room bigger.
No kidding. That dog won’t hunt in my little corner of the world.
Our 25-year old daughter came home for Christmas and was in her room. I told her next time she came back it might be changed into a guest room.
“That’s fine - as long as I can still be a guest!”
“You’ll never be a guest here - you’re family, and always will be.”
