To have a moan about DHs friend's children?

[NCForNow]

He's got this friend who has 2 kids the same age as ours. DH wanted this mate to come and help with a bit of DIY today and whilst he was making the phone call, I overheard DH saying "Oh so you'll have the kids with you then..." and I rolled my eyes...I am very busy working at the moment. I work from home.

The upstairs here is a mess due to a lot of work going on...as is the garden...my own DC are driving me mad and I am finishing my work today. These kids are messy as hell and last time they came they pulled every single DVD out of the shelf in my DDs room and left them there.

They're quite disrespectful...this is why I rolled my eyes.

DH then stuttered a bit because he saw me roll my eyes...and now he's gone mad at me because he feels that I stymied his arrangement and made thngs awkward.

But it would be ME who cleared up the mess...my DDs would help...I have tried telling these kids not to make a mess but they do and I can't watch them...the friend would be in the garden with DH.

WIBU to roll my eyes? And AIBU to not want these kids here today?

Oh and he also said "I've got hardly any friends and it's your fault"

It's not my fault but I'm not the kind f person who has an open house. I am very private...I like to arrange visits in advance.

Well you husband was asking for help, presumably free, from someone who is in charge of their kids. It isnt unreasonable for him to bring them along with him.

However, it is your house, and you should tell them off if they are messing with your stuff. Confine them to one room, do not let them wander freely around your house, or make them stay out in the garden, with your husband supervising them, while you get on with work.

You don't have to have the kids....but then, don't expect the DIY help.

Your DH's friend may have no option than to bring his kids around.

it's dh I am moaning about...not the friend. DH is expecting me to look after 4 kids instead of 2.

And I am working! and no...I can't afford childcare.

I get why you don't want them there.
Your dh should help clear up, why doesn't he?
But you can't complain if things don't get done. If he needs some, free, help and you won't/ are unable to watch the kids you will have to pay or wait for the work to be done.
He said its your fault he doesn't have friends? That implies this isn't the first friend of his that yiu have issues with. Is that correct, if so why?
