[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m curious if all the people who are ok with the inlaws letting themselves in without giving their son and dil a heads up first would do this to someone whose key they possess. If you had your adult child and their family’s house key, would you let yourself in for a few hours without notifying them first? What if you had the neighbor’s key and you needed to borrow some sugar for a special dessert and you didnt have time to run to the store, but the neighbor isn’t home? You’re obviously close if you have their key, right? Where’s the line?[/quote]

I think the difference is that OP was expecting a visit albeit at a later time that day.  I thought from the title the in-laws lived down the road and just stopped in without the Op knowing they were going to be by at all.

What kind of emergency does OP imagine her in-laws would drive 4 hours to get into their home and neither OP or DH would be able to let them in or meet them to give them a guest key?[/quote]
