Ask Amy: Boundary-bouncer experiences backslide

Dear Amy: My wife and I have a strained relationship with my parents, who live out of state. They stay with us and our two young children about twice a year. Some of their visits have been rocky (two years ago they visited us while having active cases of Covid, and didn’t tell us in advance that they were ill). My mother and I went through therapy to work on our relationship, and now I set boundaries and ask that these boundaries be respected. We offered to host my parents for five days on their most recent visit, as any more time with them would be hard on us. After the visit, which went well, my mom asked why they were allowed to stay for only five days.
