[quote=Anonymous]I would say to butt out and let them figure it out. Speak up if and when it impacts you and your child. DOn't volunteer for anything unless you have a solid relationship and you are prepared for giving an inch and folks taking a mile. MIL moved around the corner from us- she did not ask- she simply moved- expecting DH to become her companion and caregiver. Animosities among siblings, time spent away from the family, use of free time to help her, vacations etc. It all takes atoll and completely shifts relationships. Our marriage nearly ended because of it, frankly I should have walked away.[/quote]
