You say this as if every family is intrinsically good. Hillary Clinton is somebodie's family too.


I would never let several members of my family live with me no matter how short the time.

On the other hand, feed a stray dog and he'll keep coming around looking for free handouts.

If she were my family and needed a place to stay she would have one. I hate that biotch but if she were family blood is blood.

You're getting railed in this thread but I agree with you.

Ever have a brother, sister or mother in law and their family stay with you due to trouble (flooding, tough financial times, home damage)?


Yep. Had a brother live with me, MIL, ex-wife's sister and her mother. All of those situations sucked. Now I have a strict no relatives policy, no exceptions. Just me, the wife and the cat.

I haven't seen or talked to a brother in over 13 years. He has always had trouble in life..Through the grapevine I heard he is making his way to New Orleans. I have the feeling that he will show up on my doorstep. He has worn out his welcome with the rest of the family and "borrowed" money from all of us.

Her mouth wasn't broken.

Just saying.

You want pics?

BIL stayed with us for a couple months while going through the twelve steps, he was homeless, he had no car or job so we also transported him everywhere. We eventually got him a bed in a sober house in town, he got a decent job he could walk to, he could walk to his AA meetings. We paid for the room, by the way.

He was doing great. For months, doing fantastic. But one day he woke up and said frick all this. Met a girl online and took off.

ETA, when he was staying with us, i wasnt allowed to drink in the house and that sucked. I still dont know why i agreed to it.

Lol, my brother in-law and sister in-law, who we don't speak with much because they are strange, have lived with her parents since they were married and have a 6 year old and a 5 year old and show no signs of moving out any time soon. He's definitely a beta. She runs that marriage.
