We are about to move in with family for a few months, can anyone give me any advice?

My little family of three have fallen on some hard times and we are going to be moving in with my aunt, uncle and cousins for 3 months. After we move in there will be nine people in all living in their 5 bedroom house. I am greatful and blessed that my family offered to help us out like this, can anyone give me any advice on how to make the living situation as seamless as possible to everyone involved?We are about to move in with family for a few months, can anyone give me any advice?
sorry about your difficult times=you are not alone. You are lucky to have such good family.





Try to learn and follow their rules and ';ways'; even if they seem weird to you. Help around the house-run errands, etc. when possible, help with cooking, cleaning, laundry, childcare or whatever. Try to get away so they have private family time once in a while, and you guys have some time alone together too. Be gracious. Contribute financially if/when you can-even a little. Try not to overstay what was initially discussed if you can avoid it. Good luck.We are about to move in with family for a few months, can anyone give me any advice?
Omg. We have a family of 10, and have been living with my uncle, aunt, grandma and 5 cousins for a while. (long story)





It's pretty crazy with 18 people in the house...=/





But if you have to do it, you have to do it...





I'd suggest following all of their rules, helping around the house, and maybe giving your children chores to do. Limit play time with the other kids. Don't invade their privacy, give their family some time alone.





If an argument arises, do not immediately take a side. Listen to both sides of the story.





Ask before using their things, and respect one another.





Try to keep the noise level down best as you can.





Good luck, I hope it goes well!
Dont get too comfortable. Go the extra mile to parent the kids and keep them out of the way. it doesnt matter if other kids will be there, you want to leave them with a good experience and make them miss you!





Clean house, dont stay cooped up there all day everyday. Set goals and in a subtle way let them know each month what you are doing to work on getting out.
Follow all of your uncle and aunts rules. Make sure your kids do too. Be respectful to the family and their property and stay as far away from arguments and conflicts as you can. Good Luck with this situation and do not take advantage of your uncle and aunt.
