[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What more does SIL want you to actually do, and why? Is it because MIL desperately need more help? Is your DH clueless about this and SIL is the one doing the heavy lifting and she's getting resentful? I am a DIL who doesn't lift a finger, because my MIL has plenty of care and doesn't need my help. But I'd want to check that the sibling who is asking for your help isn't being completely overburdened. It's so typical that the daughter would be in that situation, and her brothers be lackadaisical. [/quote] MIL doesn't desperately need more practical help, she has plenty. Her cleaner/housekeeper and her private caregivers are doing the hard labor. DH and his siblings are doing great. SIL meant I could be more of a companion to MIL so that she doesn't feel lonely and anxious, and it would lift her mood.[/quote]
