I live with my sister, our 8 kids & husbands – we split everything 50/50 including the kitchen sink
A MOTHER has hit back at trolls who slammed her for sharing a house with her sister, their eight kids and husbands.
Rosalea said they converted their five-bedroom house into six and split each area 50/50 including the kitchen sink.
She went viral on the app when she revealed that her home is shared with her sister Veronica, each of their four kids and their husbands.
In a recent video, she clapped back at people who said splitting up the rooms didn’t make the house spacious enough to accommodate 12 people.
“It had two living rooms but we needed an extra bedroom so here we are having to share a living room,” she said.

“For those of you who’ve said ‘Oh I could never,’ that’s good for you but this works for us.”
Rosalea filmed herself tidying up her section of the house as she continued to explain the living situation.
She and Veronica don’t clean up after each other’s kids and husbands.
However, the TikToker reassured viewers that everyone in the household has a good relationship with each other.
She added that there’s no cause for concern when it comes to the husbands being at home alone with either sister.
“Sorry y’all don’t have sisters or husbands that you could trust, but don’t nobody want anybody else’s man or wife over here,” she said.
Each of these parenting techniques has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. The key is to find a balanced approach that aligns with the family's values and meets the child's needs for a healthy, happy upbringing.
“Even have our own sides of the kitchen sink that we use,” she said.
“So no one is cleaning up after anyone else unless they want to.”
She described herself and Veronica as having a similar attitude toward cleaning.
Despite their husbands getting on well, Rosalea said “You’ll hardly ever” see them spending time together in the living room.
Over 437,000 people liked the video and many people were impressed by the cost-effective arrangement.
“With the way this economy is going, a lot more people might be doing this same thing,” one person wrote.
“Eight kids in one house… you know they have a blast! And when they’re older they’ll have so many memories with the siblings and cousins,” another said.
However, trolls argued against normalising Rosalea and Veronica’s lifestyle.
“Too many people in one house! But hey if you like it, I love it!” one person commented.
“Splitting the sink is crazy,” another wrote.

“The living room is absurd, if you’re sharing a space just share it,” a third chimed in.
“Two televisions in one room feels like it would be overstimulating,” another said.
