[quote=Anonymous]This almost exact same scenario happened to our next door neighbor, except it was her grown daughter in her 40s.  She moved in and it was supposed to be temporary.  Ended up that her irrational behavior began to carry over into the neighborhood.  She began coming over to our house and demanding that we cut the trees on the border between our two houses, that they were "overhanging her mother's house and ruining the roof."  We said we would happily discuss it with her mother, to whom the house actually belonged.  Her mother kept telling us not to worry about it, that her daughter was ill.  Fast-forward seven months and the daughter was out in the backyard at 4 a.m., screaming at passers-by and at our windows, calling us by name and threatening to kill us (I have three young children).  Her mother had her committed 10 times, and she was released every time.  The cops knew us on a first-name basis.  It was the worst hell of my life.  And supposedly she was bipolar, but by the time everyone's personal hell had ended she was on court-ordered medication for schizophrenia, served time in jail and her mother sold the house for much less than it was worth just so she could flee the county, and the daughter could move in with her sister.  I have literally never, ever seen anything like it.

Botton line: don't let her move in with you.[/quote]
