NBR: who gets dibs on the guest room

DH and I just got into a huge fight (yet again) and I'd like your opinions on the matter...

DH thinks that his parents should automatically get dibs on our guest room since my sister and her family live 45 minutes away, and my parents could always stay there.  I belive that since his brother lives an hour and a half away, they could just as easily stay there (give or take) and that it's only fair for our parents to take turns in the guest room. 

Thoughts...?

  • an hour and a half is quite a bit further away.  i actually sort of agree with your husband on this one.  how frequently are they all in town together?  could you try to stagger their visits?

  • Is this a one night stay or more? I would say that if it is more than one night, let each parent stay with the siblings one night, and at your place the other. If you both have siblings in the general area, I am sure each set of parents would enjoy getting to visit them.
