My husband (33M) is refusing to let my friends daughter (12 F) stay a few days with us
I (32 F) lost my best friend of almost 20 years (33 F) 6 months ago to a murder suicide which orphaned her 3 children. My friend’s sister (29 F) graciously took all 3 children (ages 2,6, and 12) into her home on top of having her own two-year old.
The oldest (12 F) is having behavioral issues, such as having a major attitude, lying, being rude to her younger brother, not listening, being a mean girl at school, typical teenage behavior. My friend’s sister has been very gracious about it all given what the 12 year old has been through but I told her if she ever needed a break to send the 12 year old to spend a few days with me as we have a good relationship (I don’t live in the same city).
My husband (32 M) has put a boundary in that he doesn’t want her to stay with us. We live in a small two bedroom apartment and he doesn’t want her in his space and feels uncomfortable with the idea. He doesn’t understand why I think he is being unreasonable. Is he being unreasonable?
