[quote=Anonymous]I would tell your husband to go ahead and ask his parents, but the two of you should negotiate a timeline so you won't feel trapped with them forever. I would also reach out to your brother and outline everything you said here. You don't have to ask directly, but just put it out there. I don't have a lot, but I would certainly offer to help a family member or close friend in your situation. But I also wouldn't want to presume that you were struggling financially if you didn't tell me. I would also reach out to friends and acquaintances, your faith community if you have one, at least to help your DH get a new job. There's no shame in sharing your situation, and many people want opportunities to share what they have. All the best to you OP, you are in a hard situation.[/quote]
