Dear Amy: Some of their visits have been rocky (two years ago they visited us while having active cases of Covid, and didn't tell us in advance that they were ill).
Dear Amy: My wife and I have a strained relationship with my parents, who live out of state.Some of their visits have been rocky .
After the visit, which went well, my mom asked why they were allowed to stay for only five days. She said they would have liked to stay longer.Dear Bob: I appreciate your question, because your experience highlights a typical trajectory with a chronic boundary-bouncer.You two worked things out, and you put your therapy into practice. You presented your boundary with clarity, and this resulted in a good visit with your folks.
I have not suggested diving into an extended conversation about her wants or needs, because, like a good door-to-door salesperson, once she gets her foot in the door, she will wedge it open.
