My in-laws have keys to my house. However, they often come unannounced and because we live so close to each other, they visit us everyday and whenever they feel like it. They are both retirees. How do you tell them that we need space. My husband does not speak to them. Whenever they visit, he would be in his study. I have tried dropping all kinds of subtle hints and even obvious ones but they are not taking it. I feel like changing the locks to my house. Any other suggestions?

Is it your parents in law prefer the tv /tv channels at your home? It doesn't make sense visiting your home if both of u n your hubby do not talk to them.
