[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why we don’t invite my brother, SIL, and nephews to stay with us anymore. They’re constantly breaking things, pulling furniture into the walls and dinging both, leaving food and drinks in rooms and on surfaces where no one else does, and are just rough on stuff. We didn’t grow up like this so I’m not sure where my brother acquired this behavior, but it’s disrespectful and rude. I expect normal wear and tear in my house, but the house feels like it ages 1-2 years after their visits. They’re the kind of people who have their kids’ mattresses on the floor because they “broke their beds” beyond repair, and they have holes in their drywall from roughhousing They leave wet towels everywhere at my house and ask for new ones every day. At their house they barely have any towels and they’re all gray and sad. I just don’t get it.

TLDR: some people are rough and clueless and their own houses reflect that, and they treat other people’s houses like public spaces or hotels. I don’t care if you beat on your own Ashley furniture in your tract house. But at my house I’m the one who repaints, I’d also like my furniture to last longer than a couple of years, and we take care of everything because we’re going to live here for good. Call me a snobby jerk but I’m with OP.[/quote]

You wouldn't have to be a snobby jerk to be with the OP, but here you are.
