[quote=Anonymous] This person has mental issues around kids (I am prepared to bet it's anxiety/OCD-related). You cannot change that. Here's what I would do: 1. Have a clear conversation with both of them that I am concerned about her hang-ups with children, and that I notice it has worsened. I would suggest she see a psychologist for an evaluation (not a therapist). 2. That I want to keep visiting but will be exerting myself less even though I want to continue seeing FIL. Keep in mind he may continue to visit you for a bit, but there will come a time when he won't be able to anymore and you will have to do all the driving. 3. What if he declines, doesn't go into a nursing home and the girlfriend makes it difficult for him to have visitors at home? Will your children be grown by then and it'll be fine, or will she go off the deep end and not allow adults?[/quote]
