I Refused to Put Up With My In-Laws Just Because We Owe Them


My in-laws come over without asking. They stay for hours, eat our food, and leave around 2 or 3 in the morning. My husband says, “Be nice to them; they helped us buy the house.”

Recently, I started leaving when they came. Yesterday, I came back early. My husband looked shocked, and my mother-in-law laughed when she saw me.

When I walked into the living room, I was shocked to see my husband’s four young nephews running around, ruining our expensive couch, and playing with watercolors on my carpet. I was furious; it felt like my house was a daycare.

My husband said, “I would’ve cleaned up before you got home, but you came back early tonight.”

My husband thinks we owe his parents because they helped us with money, so he says our home is also their home.

I can’t take this anymore. Am I being unreasonable, or is it okay to feel this way?
