[quote=Anonymous]I think you should all have a heart to heart before moving in about how this is going to be, *after* your husband has talked to her and feels that honestly, she is on board in terms of respecting you going forward. Then I think you should agree to a 1-3 month trial. See how it goes. If everyone can make it work for 3 months, you might be able to do it. But make sure you have an alternative plan going in (nearby assisted living, living with another sibling, etc) so that if it doesn't work you can stop. I think you are wonderful and generous person despite the negativity you've experienced from them. If your MIL has it in her to be a respectful mature human being, perhaps it can work. But you don't have to subject yourself to abuse if this is what her living with you will mean in practice. Best of luck.[/quote]
