[quote=Anonymous]Are you the go-between on this, or are mom and daughter making the arrangements themselves? If you're the go-between, I suggest you very matter-of-factly convene a meeting (even if one or all parties are on the phone) to work out the cost-sharing for the summer. Daughter should be picking up the lion's share of the household chores if nothing else, IMO if she's going to live rent-free and her grandmother's house -- that's just being gracious. If they're making the arrangements themselves, it's not *really* your business even though it is, you know? I would talk to mom, not daughter, first, and see what she anticipates the summer will be like and what she might not have considered. Then I would suggest to mom again that she draw up an agreement with granddaughter. She can even ask granddaughter to draft something she thinks is fair -- unless your daughter is a jerk, she'll feel obligated to write up something reasonable.[/quote]
