Should I have my own room?

I'm a 14yo girl, about to be 15 within a couple months—do you think I should have a room by now? Ive ranted to my own friends about this, and they agree. My reasons are about the fact my stuff are all around the house—I used to have my arts n crafts/drawing stuff down stairs on a big table(I took up half of it) and my parents just moved all of those up stairs a while ago.

Today, I wanted to tailor some of my clothes myself—so I went to see if I had anywhere to do it comfortably, and I didn't. I went upstairs to see if i wanted to, and instead, I just broke down on the fact that I hated the set up, I hated the fact that my stuff are in different places, I hated the fact that my stuff would mix in with theirs, I hated the fact that I dont have much privacy.

Its inconvenient for me, and for my family honestly. My parents always say, "when you're older!!! " but i think 15 is old enough. We have a massive room that was formerly my grandma's room, but is now a room we store our clothes in—and that room is big enough to be halved into 2. (And I HAVE processed it in my head long enough to know that the clothes would have enough space for themselves and my OWN room.)

I have good grades, take responsibility, and genuinely would be more organized and clean if I had my own room for all my stuff. 🫩

(I'm not sure if this is the right tag for it, but it seems right😞)
