[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I turned down an offer of a $40K loan from my ILs for our down payment. We didn't need it (had more than enough for the down payment on our own). My husband was lukewarm on the issue, but I made the point that "then they'll want a key and want to tell us what to do." Now, each and every time they visit--even though they didn't give us any money--they ask for a key, and tell us what to do. ("Why'd you get the deck painted? You should have done the basement carpet.") When they do this, we catch each other's eye, grin, and one of us says, "That's the decision we made together."[/quote]
