Would you trust your sibling with something as important as the keys to your house?

It's okay if your answer is 'no', there's no judgment here. Quite frankly, it makes perfect sense that some people don't trust even those closest to them with something so important. After all, by giving someone a key to your house, you are permitting them to enter the place most sacred to you whenever they want. It is not something that should be given to just anyone, even if there's a family relation between the two of you.

The only people you should give a key to are those you know won't use it unless it's an absolute emergency. Only those who respect your boundaries should be granted unlimited access to your home, because you know they never intend to use it.

The 31-year-old sister in the story below, for example, is not someone who makes it easy to trust her, especially not when it comes to her older brother. He turned to a Reddit community to see if his decision to refuse her request for a key to his house was the right one. It turns out, his 31-year-old sister, who is also a mother of three kids under 10, is not the most responsible adult. She keeps changing jobs, dating different men, and inviting a new crisis into her home every few months.

Her latest crisis happened when she got locked out of her apartment at 11 PM with her three kids. She called her brother to help, and he came to pick them up and host them in his house for the night. After that, the sister started demanding a key to his house in case a similar crisis happened again.

While this brother loves his sister, he doesn't trust her with a key to his house, since he knows she will simply use it whenever she sees fit. Unsurprisingly, she was not happy when he told her no…
