[quote=Anonymous]My parents currently live 10 min away from us. I have tween and teen children. Lately, my parents have been visiting daily, coming in as we are having dinner. My mom will then go upstairs to our bedrooms and "clean." Our house is clean. It's not spotless but it is tidy. I noticed that she will re-make everyone's beds and rehang towels and things that are totally unnecessary. It is getting to the point where she is constantly in my way and the duration of these "cleanings" are lasting 2-3 hours on weeknights. It's disruptive to my kids as they are studying and trying to wind down. I have told her that it is unnecessary, yet she just waves me off and continues to "clean." Recently she has been sick and I asked her to not do it but she still did it, still re-made all the beds, all while coughing on them. I don't understand why she feels the need to do this and I am not sure of how I can kindly get her to stop. She is extremely sensitive and angers easily. If anyone has any similar experiences/advice, please do share. Thanks.[/quote]
