So I have 5 children... one is a baby aged 7 months. A friend ( DH known for years) has asked us if her two girls (aged 12 and 13) can stay at mine on the weekend from Saturday till Sunday afternoon whilst she's at work on calm I think. My DH agreed yesterday that they could but my DH will be on a night shift that night so it will be me and 7 kids alone in a small there bedroomed house. I know they are teenagers and they will just do their own thing but I don't want that added responsibility even for a night. She said she would have my two oldest kids one day as a favour back but I have 5 children aged 10, 9, 5 and 4 and a baby 7 months and I know my kids will play up. She said her girls will just go to sleep but my kids won't, if they know their dad is at work and their are two other kids at the house they will play up bad and I won't be able to shout at my kids because I have to respect other people kids so I'm thinking the night could b stressful. My DH just agreed without even thinking about how stressful my kids wil be. They don't go to sleep till late when he's at work so I know they will play up bad. Also we have a tiny 3 bed house as well.. Am I being unreasonable to be dreading the weekend
