[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it’s accurate to say she’s forcing you. Your husband wants to. [/quote]

The law in Germany is on the MIL‘s side. The government could go after the son if he earns more than €100k. How they enforce it overseas is another question.[/quote]

Is this OP?  This was from your original post:  " Legally, in Germany the spouse is responsible for the medical costs and nursing home costs of the other spouse. So the guardian can force her to sell the house."[/quote]

I posted this and I am not the OP. People who know German and can read legal language are clearly at an advantage over those who just speculate on DCUM. German law doesn’t require the MIL to sell her house. German law requires the AC to contribute toward the cost of AC makes more than €100k. A simple google search on legal articles revealed that. I didn’t know it before either but whatever „you“ think is fair and what the law of a country on another continent requires are two different things. [/quote]
