[quote=Anonymous]OP, you asked how to handle this which sounds like you’re trying to navigate your husband being pissed off that dd made a choice he didn’t think she’d make. It’s not on you to make everyone happy or to manage his feelings. You can call out your dh for being pissy. He doesn’t get to punish everyone because he couldn’t control his adult daughter: “Bob, you don’t get to punish Larla or the rest of us because she chose a different way to respect the rules you laid out for sleeping arrangements. She’s not doing it to punish us just like you didn’t impose the sleeping rule to punish her. Get it together and be happy that she’s home. And if you can’t do that, fake it.” 😬 You’ll have a perfectly fine time with your dd and the boyfriend. Driving 25 min each way is not that big of a deal. She’s making the transition into adulthood, and it’s hard on everyone. But you’ll all get through to the other side. [/quote]
