Consider yourself lucky if that is all you have. I just got out of the Navy a few months ago and got a small 3 bedroom house with my wife and daughter. My sister and her 2 kids got evicted and are now staying with me while trying to find her own place. On top of that, my parents are about to loose their mortgage and come stay with me for a little while as well. So, I'm about to be living with my wife, daughter, sister, her 2 kids, and both of my parents for a while  >:(

No, I have never dealt with anything like this...but I can only imagine what's it like to be crowded.

Oh, wow, and I complain when relatives come over and interrupt my daily routines. I hope you find a solution and everything works out for you.

Thanks for the comment. I actually have a solution to this but it will just take some time... My sister just got a job and is maybe about a month away from moving out herself, then my parents are actually filling for bankruptcy and just starting over with taking out a loan and getting a new place of their own. It will just take forever it seems like.  :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead:

I would be willing to let a family  member stay for a couple of days until something panned out for aid but I would wear thin very quickly.  It is a home built for ONE family...not many.  Plus, people need privacy and space and I respect that in others homes as I do in my own.

For awhile my husband, my 2 kids at the time and myself had to move in with my mother in law and my husbands brother and her boyfriend and his 3 kids moved in. We were in a two bedroom apartment. My family was on the living room floor. brother in law had his room and my husbands mom and boyfriend and his 3 kids were in there room it was crowded but It was nice of her to take us in when we needed it. However having my own place again is very very nice

Are they at least helping with the bills? If they are perhaps a better way to approach it would be to have him discuss moving into a bigger place?
