But the other night, when we had them over for dinner, my mom just sort of announced out of the blue that she’d be coming around every day “just to see them and help out.” Since they only live about a block and a half away, this wouldn’t be much of an inconvenience for her.

Now understand, both my wife and I love my mother dearly, but having her drop in every day isn’t exactly what we had in mind. How do I tell her that in a way that won’t hurt her feelings or give the wrong impression? — A DADDY IN DAYTON
