[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get what you're struggling with here, OP.  You literally hold all the cards.  It's your house.  Don't let people come over if you don't want to.  If they pitch a hissy, that's on them.  It's not your job to make sure they never react inappropriately to things, and their feelings aren't yours to manage.

They're trying to hand you a bag of poop.  Don't take it.[/quote]

This. Say it's not safe for them and you don't want to be responsible for them potentially catching COVID from you all. And that you will miss them so much this year.[/quote]

Op's husband has a say in this.  If he wants to visit with his parents OUTSIDE in his own yard he can do it.  If the kids want to play outside and visit with their grandparents they should do so.

The only one who sounds terrified is Op.  She can stay inside.[/quote]

Again, I think everyone is entitled to his/her own level of comfort and what's safest for themselves and their families right now. My point of view, is that we are one unit as a family. if one of us gets COVID-19, we can all get it very easily. Thankfully, my husband agrees on this and also doesn't want them visiting right now. Problem is they don't stop pushing until they get their way. [/quote]
