[quote=Anonymous]I think DH and sibling have to stop depositing money into Mom and Dad's account. Send them a gift card to a grocery store if you are worried they don't have enough to eat, for sure. But no more cash. Pay for a home inspector to come and give a complete picture of what will need to be repaired to make the home liveable, and to get an idea of what it will all cost. If a new roof is needed, see if your In laws have any county or state programs to help elders afford a new roof. Use the information from the inspector and try to connect your in laws to programs to help elderly with repairs. But do not use your own money. At all. You don't have enough money to support his parents in crazy financial decision making. Let the police know your In laws are elderly and have a bad roof and may need to be evacuated in a hurricane. but YOU don't fix their roof. [/quote]
