[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of DCUM posters obviously don’t live by the “it takes a village” way of raising kids. Fine. But that means your way of vacationing with kids is not a good fit for this particular vacation. Like it or not, OP is the host, so her preferences matter. (And yes to the ones who insist on bringing up OP’s parents. It’s HER parents who have given HER permission to use the house. She is the host.)

And there’s simply no excuse for not doing your own laundry and dishes as an adult, or working remotely and disrupting vacation for others when your own house is nearby. OP, it’s perfectly fine to tell the cousin it won’t work next year and why.[/quote]

Does she not do her own dishes or does she not do them when op thinks she should? Something tells me op has complained about how cousin does laundry too.[/quote]You can imagine different scenarios all you want. We can only go by what OP writes. And she says cousin doesn’t contribute to daily cooking, cleaning, or laundry. And in that case, yeah I think OP is clearly in the right to ask her not to return next year. Cousin is not the kind of house guest OP prefers. End of story.[/quote]
