[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I feel sad reading these messages. Family should only visit for three days? I have a 10-year-old, and when I think that down the road I should only visit for three days at a time, I feel sad. My in-laws have stayed with us for a week, a couple weeks, even a couple months. Sure it can be a strain, but we should figure out ways to make longer visits than 3 days possible. OP, it does sound like your DIL may be feeling spent from the holidays. That’s not anything to do specifically with you. [/quote] I like long visits with family but my family actually pitches in and doesn’t expect to be served coffee. [/quote] Exactly. Family visits can be longer if the visitors don’t expect to be waited on but actually become contributors in the house. The worst is when houseguests come to stay to be catered to rather than to actually spend time with you.[/quote]
