I can't imagine how the sleeping arrangements came to be*...Did Steve offer to sleep with his Ma? Surely she's lived alone since she lost her husband so doesn't need the companionship, so that can't be the excuse for offering. Do you think he has to ask her like "please can I sleep with you instead of the angry woman?" It's so weird how it happened, do Babs parents not think it's odd? I know for a FACT my mum and MIL would be gossiping behind our backs about it!
I also know for a fact my MIL would have taken both my kids in with her so husband and I could have our own room instead.
*Well actually, I know how it happened, Babs would have allocated the rooms cos she's in charge and they all do as they're told.
