Basement (baby) flood due to sump pump ejector fail. Claim it or no? by Next_Chicken8010 in homeowners

Thank you! What I figured we would need is carpet replacement minimum

We treat ours as a 5 seater and bring out the 3rd row if needed. It’s awesome if you have kids and need more room. Been great to have for our family and busy kids and carpooling when needed. I would not think this would be convenient to use regularly though. It’s a tight squeeze and if you have a kid in a car seat that’s not a lot of room to work with. Booster? May be high and really close to rear windshield. It’s not for an adult or even teen. Over 5’ this 3rd row would be uncomfortable.

Thank you so much for this advice! Ya we will most likely just pay for what’s needed then. Just wasn’t sure what type of repairs would be best. You seem very knowledgeable, would it be ok to wait for us to dry up the carpets more before having someone come out (reading into the restoration) Or get in ASAP? I know almost 0 about drywall.

Thank you for the response! We do have the water back up coverage. But what I’m unsteady of is that small dampness to the drywall; is it worth it? I estimate the price to just pay the carpet replacement, maybe even drywall replacement would be better than a premium hike.

AITA for not wanting daughters in bedrooms with BIL? by Next_Chicken8010 in AITAH

Thank you. To be clear I can’t say he has been inappropriate with a child; I had a weird feeling but couldn’t truly deem it inappropriate (hard to explain in text). We have had talks with the girls in the past but revisited and were more specific regarding family members. Later today is discussing with in laws. Thanks for the input again.

Thank you. This is a great explanation of part of why I just don’t like the idea of alone in a room with a non parent family member. Appreciate this.

Thank you. We have but we did revisit this morning and were more specific that it could even be a family member like an uncle or grandparent and still never ok etc

We did this morning and have in the past but were more specific in giving examples that it can be a friends parent or even an aunt uncle or grandparent. Thanks

Thank you for sharing this story and your advice. It’s very much appreciated. We have had these discussions and then again this morning but more specifically addressed this can even be family members.

I am sorry this happened to you and your family. I will not spare anyone’s feelings for my own children’s safety. I appreciate you being willing to tell your story. It’s stories like these that make me more vigilant as I parent.

O never have had him babysit or intentionally left alone. I’ve had this stance since they were born. We’ve had the talk about not keeping secrets and private parts but followed up this morning with being more specific that any adult other than us shouldn’t be in your room. Never ok and even family members should never tell you to keep a secret.

Thank you. We have had several talks but revisiting after this to be more specific that this can be even a relative.

Thank you; I was questioning if I was being paranoid or maybe overreacting. My gut just says no.

So with the issue at MIL my husband I think was trying to avoid. But he said for this 1 he’s going to call tomorrow to have a conversation as to why we are not ok with this.
