My sisters house is an absolute mess!
Untidy, cluttered, dirty, unhygienic.
She has a DC (1).
Our parents, my DB and Dsil and myself & DH are worried that the level is unacceptable and that living like this will become the norm for their DC.
The house smells ( bin, cat tray and dirty nappies)
There is stuff everywhere - general untidiness, but also they never throw things out (e.g old car radio given to them 8 /9 years ago languishes in the hallway - has actually moved house with them!)
Always unwashed pots in sink.
They go away for a weekend and leave unwashed pots including DC's bottle festering in living room.
Upstairs is a tip 2nd bedroom used as as dumping ground full of rubbish.
Hazards for their DC and mine left around (nail scissors, batteries, paracetamol)
How can we make them realise it isn't OK to live like that without offending? Can we do it without offending?
Genuinely worried about safety both hygiene (dirty fridge and kitchen floor) and safety from get hold of stuff DC shouldn't and tripping over things left on floor!
