Husband gets in trouble with entitled, disapproving in-laws after he turned "their" guest room into a home office: 'They didn't take it well!'

No one ever said that when you marry someone, you need to be able to house your in-laws every time they visit. That's not part of the loving but contractual agreement that is marriage. First of all, this assumption is built on the notion that the couple in question has the space to have guests staying with them on a regular basis. Let's be real: You likely need to have a guest room at the very least, considering that most in-laws would not be happy crashing on a couch. This, of course, is understandable, as they are no longer in their 20s. Still, whatever happened to these crazy things called hotels?

Another frustrating part of dealing with visiting in-laws is the assumption that you need to uproot your life for them. Sure, you want to be able to plan events that are easy for all involved, but all families need space, and feeling like you're living on top of one another is not necessarily good for the relationship moving forward. You have to be able to draw the line somewhere, even if you do have room to let them stay with you!
