Everytime my husband and me set a rule for our home, his sister seems to enjoy breaking the rules and having some lame excuse for not abiding by them when she visits. For instance, she'll be out in the snow smoking a cigarette and then trample all over the carpet in her snowy shoes, and excuses the mess by saying "I had to go to the bathroom really badly." and follows up with "it's just a little snow, water won't hurt the carpet" even though that's besides the point, point is I don't like stepping on wet carpet. Recently she feels it nessasary to bring her dog with her everytime his parents come to watch our sons. My husband loaths dogs and even has a sensitivity to the hair. She says "But this is my baby, I accept your kids, my Peanut is part of the family" How would you deal with this, when she has clearly been told the rules and blaintenly disregards them?
