[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Growing up, we always had to give up our room/s for family when they visited. This post shows an example of how we as a country are raising spoiled, entitled kids. [/quote] Seriously, I'm so glad I grew up in a culture where doing this wasn't even a question. If a relative needed my room I would sleep on a mattress on the floor in my parents' bedroom. I slept on the floor in my bedroom while my grandmother got my bed many times. And this was in a 5 bedroom house. The fondest memories of my [b]childhood were holidays spent with grandparents, aunts, uncles, and all the cousins piled into one house with extra mattresses thrown everywhere possible. [/b] [/quote] That’s nice for you but her kids don’t want it so it wouldn’t be a fond memory. And if these are teen girls they should absolutely not be giving up bedrooms for unrelated men, that’s incredibly inappropriate.[/quote] They’re sharing a room so their aunt can sleep in a bed. A kid giving up a room for an aunt is completely normal in most families. [/quote] If their boys, and they want to, maybe. An unrelated man sleeping in a teenage girls bed? Not in my household.[/quote] You're really fixated on the aunt's partner. Put him out in the living room with the adult son then. I stand by my assertion that telling your two teens to share a bedroom for a few nights so that their aunt doesn't have to sleep on the couch or go to a hotel is incredibly normal, and to do otherwise because your kids are too precious to share a bedroom, is ridiculous. [/quote] The aunt was told not to stay and she refused! I mean contemplate that for a minute. It’s rude enough to invite yourself . It’s a whole other level of horribleness to hear the other person say no to your rude request and refuse to accept no. These are trashy relatives. There is no way in hell that I would displace my kids for a rude entitled jerk![/quote]
