I would say that you shouldn't have to change your home life around for anyone, especially if they are coming to YOUR home. But if you are wanting to have the bbq or stay friends with this couple, maybe compromise and put a barrier for the babies so they don't jump on her lap or anything. For example, my family loves coco but they've never been animal people and they are not comfortable sleeping with her when they come over. So to make them a little more comfortable I provide them with sheets coco has never touched and I let her sleep in her crate or stroller, so she doesn't jump on them. I'm ok with that because I don't want them NOT to visit and they don't that often anyway. It's just a personal choice. |
