Rude Dinner Guests

    I'm just freeforming here, I might change my mind by the end of my rant. A man's home is his castle I figure, and a woman her nest. Guests can't poopy all over the place without consequences. Many of us are too polite to boot out an offensive guest unless they become threatening. But a rude guest might find they're not invited back.

    Out there in the big, bad world I figure they can rant and rave all they want. It's a free country, after all. But at home? Respect the owner.

    So, is restricting our association in our homes, the same as shunning? SHUN is a dirty word here on JWD. In our sensitivity to the word, I don't think we need to apologize to anyone who oversteps their bounds. Everyone deserves to feel safe in their own home.

    Rant over.

    You're right, your home is your most personal space and should be respected. If someone is rude or disrespectful to you or you property you have every right to avoid them at all costs.

    I am the type of person, and I think that my wife would testify to this, that wouldnt hesitate to throw some one out of my home or off my property (physically if necessary).

    well if they said that its more a question of you having the self respect to put your foot down and stop that form of abuse. Nothing wrong with that in my book.

    I'll let someone make a few rude jabs at me... but after that I send them out the door.
