[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can understand the taking care of family cultures. I’m part of one. If I were in this situation, I would make it clear that BIL would be required to seek treatment while living with us. I wouldn’t bother telling MIL that he will be washing his own clothes, etc. It would just cause conflict or anxiety. You just make his chores part of the lifestyle in your house. He will do his clothes because no one else will. Once he’s with you, in your home, MIL can complain if she wants but there’s really nothing she can do and she will know that. [/quote] 5e time for treatment was age 6-16. He has too many negative coping methods now plus sounds too enabled and codependent on family for his age. Not gonna change no matter how many $250 psych sessions you pay for. [/quote]
