I suggest that you call for a pow-wow and negotiate for peace in the family. Allow space for everyone to express their individual and family needs. Encourage a lot of listening. Ask people to suggest and agree how they can help respect and meet each others needs.

Thank everyone for not imposing their values on you, and make it clear you won't impose yours on them. But your house is your domain. IF you had a no-smoking house, or a no-shoes in the house rule, would you let your daughter smoke and wear her muddy boots into the house?

If you want to support your position, print out in advance some of the materials available on the web. Robert Cohen's site offers lots of free resources.
