[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's a guest in your house and[b] should be free to do as she pleases[/b] and make herself at home. You are being controlled.[/quote] I think there's a huge difference between making a guest feel welcome and letting them do as they please. My mother would like to rearrange everything in my house every time she visits - should I let her do that because she's a guest or am I allowed to decide where the glasses go in my kitchen and which trash bags to buy now that I'm in my 40s? Agree with PPs who have suggested setting boundaries/time limits on the kitchen and insisting your husband communicate this to her AND be in charge of clean up. Perhaps that needs to include having a cleaner come in after the visit. [/quote]
