TFPers,

My wife and I are truly appreciative of all of these ideas, and thanks to you wonderful people, we may have come up with a solid plan. So allow me to amend the Contest slightly...

Obviously, the best thing for us would be for them to not move in with us at all. However, short of that, the NEXT best thing would be for them to decide ON THEIR OWN to not move in. And that's where this contest comes in. We're looking for ways to prevent them from moving in without us having to say, "You can't move in." And some of your suggestions have been nothing short of brilliant in this regard.

However, we must be prepared to accept a small defeat and face the possibility that they might move in anyway. In that case, we now have a PART TWO to this Contest, which is as follows:

If they move in, what could we do to drive them out ON THEIR OWN?

We still need suggestions for both parts of this Contest, so don't let your creativity get lazy....
