Don't come

By anonymous - This FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff

Today, my parents and in-laws are in a bidding war for the house next door, since we are about to have a son. We're not even sure if we want them living this close. FML

Get a dog and train him/her to build a shit barrier in their yard to keep them away from your house.

I would normally say that having parents or in laws close would be good for helping with the baby...but not that close to you.

Put your foot down NOW, OP. Otherwise you will NEVER get rid of them. EVER. And change your locks if any of them have keys to your house.

It'll be just like an endless episode of Everyone Loves Raymond. Just with D list actors. You should either stop this from happening or film it all.

Wow, was not expecting to see a shitty situation comment on an un-shit-related FML. Touche.

Well, that is an unwelcome event. No one wants their family or the in laws that close. I suggest getting a third person in on the bidding war. Or Lay down the law in a very harsh manner.

Whenever one of them wins, calmly tell them that you've been thinking of moving or actually move

Put a fake for sale sign up and tell them your planning on moving into a better school district

Just speak up and let them know you don't want them that close in a nice way. They are your parents so just be straight with them

Did they not consult you or did you not stand up for yourself?
