| Answers: Is it unreasonable to expect in-laws to control their kids in my home? My wife and I do not have kids, and both work long hours. I travel out-of-town during the week, and like to enjoy my weekend at home. My brother-in-law and his wife and son live 2 hours away, and keeps asking my wife to let them come to visit. He's OK, but his wife and son are very whiny and rude. On their last visit 3 years ago, the son climbed all over the furniture, ran and and jumped in the house, then went in the basement and climbed on antiques, breaking 2 things. The parents sit back and do nothing, but when I said something, he whined and said I'm being mean, and claimed I tried to trip him - and the mother agreed with him! The brother-in-law puts a guilt trip on my wife, so she doesn't want to rock the boat. I've told her I feel uncomfortable having them visit, and suggested going to visit them instead. Am I being unreasonable? |
| Every parent should make the necessary measure to control the actions of their children especially when they are outside their own home. However, for many parents who have hyperactive children, sometimes that is impossible to do so. If you could talk nicely to the parents about their child, that is best. Maybe you could help do something about the behavior of their child. But if they won't listen, that is another story. |
| I understand your sentiments. Well I think your main concern is just to protect your furniture and other properties there. Well, you can talk to their parents about this matter, so that they can talk to their kids as well. I think as the owner of the house, you have the right to tell your nephew that what he's doing was wrong. Of course, you just simply want to secure your own furniture. |
| Kids really have that behavior but as parents we should try to discipline them. To think that your in laws knew that their kids are being too noisy and too naughty to the point of breaking important stuffs in your home, that is one serious story for me. I think that you did the right thing. They should have controlled their kids knowing they are not at their home. Good day. |
| Costumed furniture's are much better to put in basement since you can be able to organize stuff and maximize your space. Choosing an ideal basement furniture is more likely the same in choosing the right foundation of your home. The durability, design and style to fit in your basement structure. There are wide varieties and range of designs you can choose from. You can customize the design so that you can make sure that the durability has been tested. |
