    I feel you with the ice ;I only have three ice trays and there is never any ice when I want some.

    Ya know, I'm on your side. It's your house and they are adults.

    Having an adult daughter living with me, I totally understand your frustration. I routinely remove about six glasses from her room a week because she's too lazy to take to the kitchen. When she DOES put her dishes in the kitchen, it's only as far as the SINK. The "maid" will get those, thank you. Very frustrating. Total hugs!

    You said it in your thread title, they are ADULTS - they need to start proving that they are if they wish to be treated like one.

    Good for you for not letting them continue to walk all over you & take you for granted.

    Guests in your home , family or not should always be thoughtful and considerate, if not show them the door. You are only asking for basic manners and everyone should know them after grade school.
