[quote=Anonymous]This is your DH’s parents - is it not possible for him to have a very direct conversation with them about how if they can’t do something about the dog hair and dust, you all won’t be able to stay with them? As a part of that dialogue, seems like there are a few options to solve: 1) agree on some deep cleaning before you come (I think a one-time clean won’t cut it - so it for the whole year or at least a few months in advance) 2) your DH goes 3 days in advance to help clean and get the house ready 3) your family stay at a hotel (or is there a closer Airbnb?) 4) you all meet at a neutral location and make it a vacation 5) you host and gather at your house My parents house was cleaned regularly but I still couldn’t stay there with my allergies. The 40+ year old curtains, beds and carpet just held too much dust. We stopped gathering there and my mom totally understood because she didn’t want me to suffer.[/quote]
