[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your parents can't stay NEITHER can hers.

You can't play favorites, if she wants it this way then she can't have her parents stay either.

Either they all can or none can. [/quote]

OP, you and your wife are unbelievable. Is this your family or not? You both sound selfish and clueless. FWIW,  I’m a DW, with in-laws that I used to despise. They often said things that felt rude or alienating to me. But they stayed with us for visits. We had the space. They are family. They raised DH. DH loves them. Did I like it? No. But it was the right thing to do. No way would I ask for them to buy me furniture but not welcome them in my home!

BTW, after 15 years of putting up with them, I’ve gradually come to really appreciate them. I understand DH better. I understand his family of origin. They’ve become my extended family.  They are the grandparents to our children. I definitely think having them stay with us on occasion helped us connect better.
