"And lead us NOT into temptation..."

No. As our Sister Bat pointed out, this could potentially lead to places where the child of God should not go.

I commend our Sister Bat for keeping her distance from her brother-in-law as this helps keep temptation away from him. And also for placing her other sister's needs first [Smile] Now THIS Is Love in action!

I vote a resounding YES! I love my sister in law! My brother started dating her 10 years ago and she has been with the family as one of the family ever since. Of course there are individual cases where it may not be a good idea if there is a question, but in general I think that would be quite sad if family members couldn't spend time with one another without asking. Sounds like a prison to me. Of course there are lines not to cross, but drawing the line where the poll suggests is a bit too conservative... in my opinion [Smile]

ok... i voted no. because one of my brothers-in-law is always flirting with me. I joke it off, but if my sister isn't home, even if all three of the children are there, I make every effort to leave as quickly as possible because I feel so uncomfortable around him.
my other brother-in-law is the opposite. I could be around him without feeling in the least bit uncomfortable, but that sister is highly suspicious of everything, so I would never be alone with him either, simply to keep her mind at ease.

Continuing the theme from the first Yes/No polls regarding male/female interactions...

What about family members related by marriage? For example, is it ok for a man to spend a lot of time with his sister-in-law, or woman with a brother-in-law (without the spouse being present)?
