[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if someone could tell a grown woman she cannot bring her iPad to their house, that someone would need to be your husband, not you. It's his mother. If he shares your concerns perhaps he could talk to his mother about spending more time interacting with her grandchildren while she's present in your home. But you cannot tell your houseguest to leave her iPad at home and be within the bounds of good manners.[/quote] +1. If it's really that big an issue, just say your WiFi is broken and hope she doesn't have 3G on her iPad. If she does, I think you're just out of luck. I don't see how you can win this one. She does sound rude but there's no real way for you to control her to this extent. Let your DH handle it, and if he won't, just have an extra glass of mulled wine and complain to your friends. :)[/quote]
