Q: married adult living with parents, can the father force child’s spouse to leave the property
let me rephrase and add some detail. my hubs+2sons have been living w/my in-laws since Mar. i receive mail at the address but sleep somewhere else due to PO rules. there’s a verbal agreement between hub and FIL but no lease. we help with housework and groceries. FIL has threatened to call cops/remove me for arbitrary reasons (ie: having my phone in my hand while being outside with my kids, asking FIL to speak to me like a human being after a misunderstanding between me&my son where FIL was screaming at me, or because my hub&i got in a fight and FIL butted in and threatened the cops) obvs i leave cause i’m not getting arrested in front of my kids. but i question the actual legality of all of it. hubs&FIL have agreement on paper regarding certain behaviors on both sides but FIL makes 0 effort to follow, while expecting 100% adherence on our part or jumps straight to bringing the cops into it.
thanks!
A: Yes. Father is the "homeowner" and the spouse is a "guest" and so is daughter, so be nice!
