[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, you need to really evaluate yourself. Why on earth would you have any hesitation? It''s odd, and frankly your child needs a stronger parent.[/quote] Wow. Never did I say I was hesitating, I am looking for a way to be kind to a family member while still saying no. I'm sorry that you are so "STRONG" that you don't understand kindness.[/quote] You have a few choices - just be honest that you are uncomfortable about leaving your child primarily because of the guns in the house You can spin it as your own insecurities "It's not you, it's me!" - if you don't want to be entirely truthful. you can say that you don't allow sleepovers or playdates without a parent and probably get away with that for a while[/quote]
