[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not let MIL live and die the way she chooses? Just because it makes you ucomfortable, doesn't mean she can't stay where she is. As long as she's only a danger to herself, it's not your business. [/quote] Not OP, but having lived this, it was many years of me dealing with emergencies and hysteria and that's with an "age in place" consultant. And...when a neighbor says "call anytime if you need somthing" said neighbor doesn't realize some elders will...often and then the neighbors called me infuriated and feeling like they were being taken advantage of. It's not about adult child discomfort. It's about not having a nervous breakdown and becoming seriously ill (the latter happened to me). It's about not taking advantage of the kindness of others because of your own stubbornness. Oh and when I set major boundaries I was met with hatred and screaming. Good times. [/quote]
