[quote=Anonymous][quote]Honestly, it never would have occurred to me that someone would be upset if their family member cleaned their house. I did this for my brother and SIL when they had their last baby - I got in from out of town and their house really needed to be cleaned so I did it while they discharged from the hospital.

And, who really remembers how people had their pillows on the couch so they can put them back exactly as they found them. [/quote]

Whoaa you have boundary problems if you don't understand why this is a problem. Its one thing if you are an invited guest and you clean up the kitchen, put the dishes away or something simple. It is 100% different if you let yourself uninvited and clean the whole house.

Relatives need to realize that their relative's house is NOT their home. They are guests and should a.) never enter unless invited or given permission b.) be respectful as if you were at a friend's house and c.) leave in a timely manner as you would at a friend's house. [/quote]
