just say no and tell them why. if they do choose to not talk to you then so be it. I told mine no. ones understood others threw their fit. my answer was no and stayed no. one lives in Florida and crying now for me to take her and her kids and husband in. I said no. go to work both of you and take care of your kids. you both are adults. enjoy yourself.
