[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd grey rock my brother on that one. Mention the conversation to your nephew and let him decide whether he wants to rock that boat or not.[/quote]

:roll: Yeah! This does not work for SA families.

im sorry but its quite easy to greyrock over the phone.  you should prepare 2 rooms like that Auntie said but im assuming your nephew has been to your house before so send your brother a picture of the 2 prepped rooms and when nephew arrives- just be like "you know where the guest rooms are- take whichever one you like!" and leave it at that. when your brother calls - just talk about other stuff and say you guys are super busy so you can't sneak in the hallway at midnight to check on people so he's just going to  trust in the home training and values his wife and him instilled in their son at that point.  tell him you were out when they leave and the housekeeper already cleaned the rooms.

the only way these toxic structures will change is if we change them. [/quote]
