[quote=Anonymous]Your MIL cannot care for him alone--you say that she can barely care for him now, and that's not sustainable. If they can't afford help, you will either have to pay for it or step in yourselves. There's no way around that. And think about the practicalities--how can he share a bathroom with three kids and still keep medications and any equipment safe? Is your bathroom set up so that someone can assist him with bathing? Will you need to install shower bars or other equipment to make that possible? If you cannot make your home a safe place for him, and ensure that he gets the full-time care he's going to need, then having him live with you is not a kindness. [/quote]
