[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With your facts?  1) young kids; 2) school day; 3) late arrival; 4) stranger; 5) weather was not that bad; 6) you have NO GUEST BEDROOM; 7) there are plenty of hotels in the area:

NO.  I would not have agreed.  This is an imposition on a family in a small house with existing obligations.  Ignore the sanctimonious Grannies who have 24 hr/day spare time.[/quote]

Uh, I'm the PP who said yes and I'm not an open door person.  I have a 4 and 7 year old.  I work full time, as does my husband.   Do you really think a young woman minds spending one night on a couch?  Who ARE you people?[/quote]

+1 I'm another PP and I have two kids and two dogs in 1400 square feet and I'd even move the coffee table and plug in the air mattress for her! [/quote]

Are you always so generous with other people's house and time?  Sure, help someone out, but it also doesn't make OP a bad person for saying no under the totality of circumstances.  Somehow I think you guys may not be as generous as you proclaim in real life.[/quote]
