[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your house didn't have empty rooms, your guests wouldn't be clamoring to stay there. [/quote]

Depends on the guest. My mother would insist on staying with us come hell or high water or lack of room. We have made sure to have a guest room simply because it is easier to have somewhere to put her that _doesn't_ inconvenience us rather than having to play musical beds to accommodate her.[/quote]

I don't get you people who say so-and-so "insists" on this or that in your life. Grow a backbone! No one "insists" anything for me or my nuclear family.[/quote]

I am the PP you quote. I tell my mother "no" on all sorts of things. You can't even imagine all the limits I have set and all the times I say no to her. As with the children, I choose to pick my battles. She likes staying here and the kids like having her in the house. I would have to pay for a hotel for her as she doesn't have the money for one and she has trouble driving at night so likely my DH or I would have to drive her back and forth. Some things are just not worth fighting about. [/quote]
