[quote=Anonymous]OP says that her in-laws are only in their 60s, healthy, very active, and social, and FIL is still working part time. They also have their own space on the ground floor of OP's home. It sounds like everyone gets along and there are no personality conflicts. So long as the in-laws stay married, continue to be healthy and active and don't rely on OP and her family for their social lives, the arrangement will likely continue to work well. It's a completely different situation when the parents or in-laws are single, widowed, or divorced, elderly, with physical and/or mental health challenges, dementia, or are totally dependent on the adult children for their entertainment and social lives. Or when they don't have their own private space and spend most of their time in the common areas of the house. That's when the interference and the resentment starts. Ask me how I know.[/quote]
