[quote=Anonymous]DH's 7-yo daughter is coming to stay with us for the summer. We've spent time together, but only got a week max. We get along fine, but DH is the long-distance dad, who often overindulges his DD because they don't spend that much time together, e.g., no set bedtime, sweets, not having to pick up after herself, etc. it's usually vacation when she comes, so he says it will be different when she is here for the summer. I don't want to overstep & micromanage, but we will all be in the same house & DH & I have an infant son, so I have some stake in establishing household rules. Mostly though, I want us to have a fun summer & for me to have an opportunity to bond a bit more with her. Thoughts, suggestions, do's, don't's?[/quote]
