[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe they just want you to know how much work it takes to care for your DH's mother. Or they want you to be familiar with what they are doing in case you need to step in and do it. They want your DH and you to be more "in the know". [/quote] DH and his 2 sisters text each other about MIL every day. Each person knows what the others are doing. They have also set up a shared electronic calendar so they can see who is doing what or coming in and when. MIL also has a couple of aides and a cleaner. DH spends 1 lunchtime and afternoon per week with his mother and he also contributes by taking care of her household admin and finances/bank/investments stuff. DH sometimes gets annoyed about the way SIL1 and (sometimes) her husband talk to us, or express themselves. They're not rude or obnoxious but it always feels like they're 'lecturing' us. SIL1 is bossy by nature.[/quote]
