[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 8590, member: 84"] I too, hope you broached the subject before she moved in. It makes it easier when you sit down later. Have you tried having her help make at least some of the rules? My grown kids had no cerfew. But if they weren't home and I'm in bed, the door is locked too bad. They can have a key if they're work keeps them out. I consider it common curtasey for them to let me know where they'll be. But I don't push too hard on this one either. I don't always think to let someone know where I'm off to either. I think my big ones are no smoking in the bedrms. This applies to me and husband, too. No coming in drunk or stoned. No dragging the whole town to my house expecting me to play hostess or even welcome them. (I've been known to turn people away) Pay me my rent each month on time, and whatever else I feel it necessary to charge for. Keep your room tidy and pick up after yourself. Now I don't have to worry about the friends one with T. And I have a few add ons with him I'd probably never have with the girls. Like he has a half hour limit in the bathroom. If I don't he'd never come out. (and they say women are bad [img]:tongue:[/img] ) I try not to make them too damanding. Things we can both live with. [/QUOTE]
