Musical Beds

Picture this, if you can:
Metal bunk bed, full on bottom, twin on top.
The kids want a "sleepover" type night with each other,
so I allow Danissa to sleep on the bottom bunk with Chezney and Ethan.
Cohen wants to be on the top bunk by himself.
THEN:
Cohen is crying because he wants Ethan.
Crying and crying and crying and crying.
Then he switches and decides he wants Danissa.
Danissa says she's willing to go up and sleep with him on the top bunk.
She moves.
Chezney cries for Danissa. I allow her on the top bunk
(3 kids on top, Ethan on bottom by himself)
Cohen is crying because Chezney is on top and he doesn't want her.
Chezney is crying because she now wants only Cohen and not Danissa.
Ethan is crying because he's on bottom and by himself.
I decide to have Danissa and Chezney on bottom and let Ethan be on top
with Cohen (Back to the first reason Cohen was crying).
Ethan cries because
he doesn't want to be on top.
End result: 4 kids sharing a full bed on bottom.
