[quote=Anonymous]With age I have gotten better at being assertive. You need to unapolygetic. Just remind your guests you have rules in your house and you expect parents to enforce them with their own kids. These include...no jumping on furniture, food stays in the kitchen and is not to be wiped on the sofa, hands are not for hitting. If they cannot enforce these rules I would say "I notice Little Lionel is jumping on our sofa right in front of you. Why are you not asking him to stop?" If you are afraid this will set off a family feud and believe me I have relatives where it would, then you need to be secure enough to decide "F it." We had a sofa destroyed pretty easily. They are not made like they used to. Our friends all respect boundaries and most and our family do. Those who don't are not invited.[/quote]
