They do in my house Guest, all the decisions are made by us together, usually at dinner ... if they don't like my way or I don't like theirs, we agree to a compromise, there's always one there, it just takes a little effort in finding one
If I made al the decisions, they'd never learn decision making, they'd never learn that their opinion is importnat, and mostly, they live here too, so why shouldnt they have a say in what goes on?
When it comes to tough decision stuff that i really want to take control of...erm, an example, crap, let me think....ok let's go really extreme, one says 'I want to take drugs at my leisure in the house' thats tough to compromise with, cos it's absolutely NO! So rather than say no, I'd probably say something along the lines of..'well I promise not to do drugs in the house if you don't' :lol:
Sometimes they give me the strangest looks, but it works at the end of the day so who cares?
