[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes. Not oK. Surprised you even are considering this. [/quote] NP. Not sure what is surprising about this. I think this is better than sharing room as other PP suggested. Maybe ask your LCC what they think?[/quote] OP should give up her room for her sister. Not take the AuPairs. This is just common sense. What, are you all living in the real life version of The Help?[/quote] I am op and happy to give my room, but how does that solve the problem of 3-4 people in one tiny bedroom and 6 people sharing one bath? The basement room is the biggest room in the house, currently has a queen bed and could take another queen mattress on the floor and still some extra space. I am Just thinking logistics here. Maybe this not such a big deal for me because I didn’t grow up with wealth and privilege and our family always adapted to accommodate guests with no issue whatsoever. And sorry I guess “AP being part of the family” only counts where we are taking them out to dinner and vacation! [/quote] I'd your justification for this is that you didn't grow up with money (which is stupid, neither did I, I am black and was poor AF with 7 siblings in a rent controlled apartment) then your kids should move into your bedroom.and your sister, with the same upbringing should easily adapt to sharing the upstairs space, because you didn't grow ho with priviledge and all and she can adapt, as can you. Problem solved. Kids in your room, sister and her family now have 2, maybe 3 bedrooms. Done.[/quote]
