There are about a million people or more that know this is a bad idea. But for some reason, so many of us do it. My best friend moved in with my family and I almost a year ago. For the most part, it is pretty okay. But, every once in while there are major issues. He always expects us to entertain him when he is home, complains about anything in a given day that he can and annoys the kids like he's a big brother regularly. I love him a bunch or he would not be here. I just need to find a good way to put him in his place without hurting his feelings or offending him too much. I want to stay friends, but this has really put a strain on things. If anyone has any good ideas for me please let me know.

Thanks. I have been catering to him way too much but it's hard to say something to him without him being a big girl about it. As for treating him like a sibling, I am an only child so I have no reference to go by. I have also recently realized that I am just one of those way too nice kind of people.
