[quote=Anonymous]Let your DH handle it and also learn to either not care or to gently clap back. “Yes, leftovers, like we’ve had at your house” and “we told you it’s a busy weekend!” Or ask, “What’s wrong with pizza on a Friday night?” No need to ask them to leave. That’s very dramatic. You and DH can use your words to politely but firmly and clearly push back against their complaints. Also, you are actually doing them the compliment of treating them like family, not like visiting royal dignitaries. They want to feel wanted and welcomed. They’re realizing they aren’t at this particular moment, and maybe that’s making them dig in even more. They’ll be gone tomorrow. Just hang in there. [/quote]
