[quote=Anonymous]If SIL has always been bossy, it won’t change now! It probably makes her feel like she’s important and in control. It’s a tough time for everyone. As much as possible, try to be gracious and ignore it. The only thing that might stop it is if they didn’t have to be involved in any of the elder care at all. You and your DH do benefit from their involvement in his mother’s care. They’re probably the ones that get, or will be getting, all the emergency calls at all hours, going to all the doctor visits, and keeping you informed. You and your DH can continue doing your busy full time jobs because they’re there looking out for their mother daily, otherwise your DH would be fielding a lot more calls about his mother and taking more time off to take care of her needs.[/quote]
