I may be being unreasonable but i leave the mn jury to decide
We have a family member staying with us a couple of days a week for a few months as she has just started work in the town we live in and lives too far away to get a bus and doesnt drive yet. She is almost 18. She has been here on and off for about 5 weeks ,probably about 10 days altogether if i was to add them up.
Ok my question ,should i expect her to be helping a little bit around the house , i mean helping with the dishes when we have made her tea etc?She gets in from work and literally just sits on the sofa all evening watching tv or listening to her ipod which is very annoying when im watching tv too or do i leave her too it as she is a guest?
We have two young dc and both work full time too so as u can probably imagine my house gets messy very quickly and i dont have much time to tidy ...or if i do its only 5 minutes before it looks like a bombs hit again [roll]
If i am not being unreasonable how do i ask her without making her seeing her arse over it?
