This jumped out at me and made me laugh as it sounds an awful lot like my granddaughter, who is a sweet and wonderful little girl but when her will is crossed she sticks out her lower lip, stares into space and generally ignores whatever is being said that she does not like. If she's made to respond it's nonverbal or one-word answers. It can be annoying, but...she is 4.
Good for you, standing your ground and not letting him continue to disrespect your home. Good you didn't let this bratty, entitled grown man interfere with your work and other responsibilities.
