[quote=Anonymous]Beyond engaging your MIL in conversation along the lines of "we are worried about you in that old house. we would be happy to help you transition to a more manageable place either here or closer to us" - what leverage does OP or her husband have? People are making it sound like it's OP's responsibility to intervene and make this better, but this is not a child we are talking about. Like most of us, OP will be waiting around for the other shoe to drop so she and her husband can clean up the mess (literally and figuratively). OP has no moral obligation to keep her MIL "safe." If the MIL is entrenched and not seeking help, that is her prerogative. [/quote]
