[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if it’s one cruel PP or multiple, but it sounds like niece is putting in the work to earn her keep. How much would OP have paid for an Au pair, which sounds exactly like what the niece is doing (and more… never heard of an au pair who grocery shopped). Maybe she has always wanted to be a wife and SAHM. Not all families have to be dual income. As far as having the finance around, why not include him at specific times you’re comfortable with but set firm boundaries. For example, Saturday is our family day, but we’d welcome him over for Sunday dinner (or whatever). It’s your house so you should absolutely be clear as to if and when he can hang out there, no overnight stays, etc.[/quote]
