BG: YBIL is an ex addict. He's been sober for a year and a half. He has a job, and a car, and this is the best he's ever done. He's still on probation.
OBIL lives in a home that PILs own. His wife and 3 kids live there as does YBIL.
Issue: OBIL and wife are house hunting. PIL just sold the house they were living in (way faster than expected) so they're moving in with everyone in the other house until OBIL finds a house. It is not even close to big enough. So they asked if we would take on YBIL for a few months until he can find a place.
DH wants to give him a chance and have very clear boundaries, rent agreement, and a time line established. I'm still unsure. Hes a nice kid, but I've seen him relapse several times in the past and I don't want that shit in my home with my family. I think this is a bad idea. Am I being an ass?
