[quote=Anonymous]Yes.

And on the last visit, it was all my MIL talked about. Buying a condo right down the street from us and spending 6 months of the year there when she retires shortly.

This would be a disaster for my mental health, my marriage, and a bunch of other things. I am terrified it will come to fruition and they will demand all my H's time and he will give it becuase he has never learned to set appropriate boundaries. They will expect to be over all the time, eating me out of house and home, breaking things, and making messes in my house. They will not respect our need to have family time.  I will have to take up chain smoking and become an alcoholic.

Our current relationshipt only "works" because the above only happens 2-3 weeks a year because of distance. Given my MIL lived within 30 miles of her parents and yet saw them once a month max and complained bitterly about it and FIL saw his family less than once a year after he left home, I cannot understand at all why they think this invasion into our lives is ok.[/quote]
