Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : My wife and I are getting ready to move into a new rental house.  We had discussed changing the locks on the new place when we move in just in case the previous tenants decided to make copies of the keys.   Today my wife explains to me that he actual intention is to change the locks on the new rental and make it so the Landlord cannot enter without us present.   I decided to go browse the lease to see if it says anything about changing the locks and its specifically states that in order to do so we require written permission from the owner and must provide them with a copy of the key.  Upon bringing this to my wife's attention she blows up, starts calling me an asshole and telling me I'm not on her side etc.  AITA for not wanting to break the lease as soon as we move in?  I am all for changing the locks if the landlord approves but I don't want to cause issues that would possibly get us evicted.
