[quote=Anonymous]OP, you don’t have a SIL problem, you have a DH problem. If he’s reluctant to say no (which can *only* come from him - and not you), then you can offer up a compromise. You are willing to help host them for one week. So a solution is that he can offer up two weeks, and since he travels, he can take off the first week (or not travel). You go out of town that week. He can manage the kid enthusiasm and logistics of the school runs and hosting. You will be back the 2nd week to take over for the kid ligitiacs, but he should have all the meals and hosting sorted by then. Once he realizes the load would actually fall on him back shoving on you, his tune may change. I agree that it is completely unreasonable in the situation you describe to host them for 4-8 weeks.
