[quote=Anonymous]OP, sorry, but I'm going to be that person who says, "just suck it up and let them stay." They're family! They feel comfortable in your house. That's a good thing. Saying no to this request (or assumption, such as it may be) could become a wedge in the relationship. Let them know what your rules are and ask them to abide by them. Ask them to strip the beds and put in laundry area before they go. This shouldn't be such a big deal. But our culture has gotten very focused on the nuclear family and less welcoming of and reliant on the larger family group. [/quote]
