[quote=Anonymous]I don't even see that OP's mom is being pushy. He NEVER SAID NO. He asked her to buy a bed so they'd have a place to sleep! She agreed to give them a new bed! From her POV, OP is communicating that they can stay if they can solve the bed issue, and she's solved the bed issue. Personally, I think that you let your parents stay, because your mom's behavior has improved after you FINALLY told her that her comments were upsetting your wife. So before she comes, you praise her for improving and remind her to be on her best behavior, because you want her and your wife to get along. And you plan activities so you aren't all sitting around the house driving each other nuts. And you tell your wife to grow a thicker skin, because you love your parents and want to see them. And all of you behave like mature adults who want to build a relationship. [/quote]
