[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Older woman and couple - get guest room and one kids room.  Put all the kids together in one room in air mattresses.  Mom can go in kids room.  Kids can also sleep on air mattresses in parents rooms.[/quote]

Yep.

Kids all in one room.

[b]You don't put adults on air mattresses when kids are sleeping in real beds.[/b][/quote]

Ummm it's THEIR OWN BED that you're talking about. If it was a hotel room, I'd agree with you - stick the kids on trundles or airbeds and put the adults in beds. But I personally wouldn't kick my kids out of their own bed so that adults could stay in our house.

And some of you wonder how/why your kids grow up having no respect for you, when meanwhile you've demonstrated that you don't respect them...  :shock: It's really great to show respect for the older generation when possible, but not when it comes at the expense of disrespecting the younger generation.

Personally, I'd get DH to tell his mother that her staying with us doesn't work this year since DH invited a bunch of other people around instead, and then get him to explain to the visiting party that you have one guest room with queen bed plus a couch in the living room to share among themselves however they feel it's appropriate. And if it doesn't work for them then you have great recommendations for nearby hotels. The visiting kid can stay on the airbed in whichever kid's room wants her there, and if nobody wants her there then I'd put her in the younger child's room (or she can sleep on the floor in the guest room if they want that). And also tell DH that he'd better not invite anyone around again without discussing it with you first.[/quote]
