DearPrudie: All four of them were incredibly disappointed when they arrived.

Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t under the impression that the kids would want to help me weed the garden or clean up chicken poop. I have fast, unlimited internet on which they could play games, call their friends, or use streaming services; and the woods around the property are safe to play in or explore, so long as they stayed within view of the house. The nearest town is two hours away, and I would’ve been happy to drive us all out there for a day or two of exploring.

My sister’s family didn’t want to do any of this, and on their second day, my brother-in-law actually suggested I could buy a television and have it express delivered to the home. I shut this down, and they left the next morning. Prudie, I don’t consider myself out of touch, but was I in the wrong here? Is it unusual to not own a television—and is it a faux pas to not inform one’s guests of the fact before they arrive?Not at all.
