[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both parents have the code to our house although my parents live nearby part of the year and in-laws don’t visit. My parents do come by when we’re at work to grab a tool or a ladder or something like that often. Their second home here doesn’t have everything and I don’t mind them using my things. They let the dog out when they come so he’s happy about the arrangement too.

I do think someone needs to have a key to your house. It’s rare but there are emergencies when neighbors spot a flood or your smoke detectors or whatever and it’s best if someone can get in.

I have the codes to neighbors garages. I’ve put their packages in their garages when they’re gone and they ask me to. I’ve never entered their homes. Nearly everyone I know has full video cameras so I figure I’m being watched no matter what I do. [/quote]

If a neighbor called me to say something was amiss, I could give them the garage code. No need for a key. I'd also hang up with them and send my local cousin or aunt over; I'd rather have family help me out when possible. [/quote]
