[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am hosting my parents for Thanksgiving week and made sure to stock up on their preferred grocery items, etc. But they are very unhappy that we do not have cable so they can’t watch MSNBC at top volume all day long!

My sister comes for the day to my place for Thanksgiving and then both of us stay at my parents’ for Christmas… but as our families have grown, the guest room space there has gotten less comfortable. Because her kids are “bad sleepers” and can’t share rooms, DH and I have ended up on an air mattress in the den with one dc. So it might be time for a hotel![/quote]

Say more. Does one of their kids sleep with them? Or do they get their own room, their kids each get their own room, and your family is in the den? Why aren’t THEY in the den?[/quote]

Each of her kids gets a bedroom and she and her DH get a bedroom. My parents consider her the fragile one and me the “hardy” one. I absolutely love her and my kid is a good sleeper but any attempt to adjust the imbalance has led to pouting and threats from her DH. [/quote]

What are the threats? Why is your sister considered fragile? I still don’t get why the den isn’t good enough for your sister and her husband if it’s good enough for you and your husband. How can anyone possibly think this is fair?[/quote]
