We all know the concept of giving away our own bed for a guest, but if the neighbor next door has an empty room to offer is it a mitzvah for us to sleep on the floor and give our bed away?
You just sparked a rant:
I am very against people who give up their kids beds for a guest.
You think you are teaching chessed. But, chessed is when you give up from yourself for others; you are teaching to give up from someone else for others.
If you want to teach chessed, give up your own bed.
