So... Don't want to be hated here, but just wondering AIBU? NDN has dementia. Wife has generally been lovely and always said to tell her if any problems. Well, we have had numerous problems, such as NDN trying to enter our house uninvited, standing in front of our car bonnet as we are trying to leave the drive, refusing to move, being very insistent that our children chat to him despite them being quite frightened of him (I have not encouraged them with this, they just find him a bit too pushy). On one occasion DH spoke to his wife to say we had had a problem with him leaning on our car as we were trying to drive out of our drive. Anyway, tonight DH came down the stairs from putting DC to bed to find him peering in and knocking constantly on our porch window (you can see right in through our house this way), so he went to speak to his wife, and said as politely as he could that this was not ok and was very invasive. She responded very aggressively and slammed the door on him. Now I get this bit, and understand her defensive reaction, but she is not one to back down and apologise. Are we BU to not be happy with this behaviour or should www just accept it as he has dementia? We both feel very guilty, but have had various things happen for at least 2 years, and find the lack of privacy really difficult, especially when it impacts our DC.
