[quote=Anonymous] OP I agree with the others, get help and stop trying to control your inlaws. You are showing some very negatively distorted thinking. You assume "retired" means they are living a carefree life. Perhaps they are not telling you about their health issues, problems with their adult children and endless other things. It doesn't matter. You chose to move the elders near you. I have been where you are and I learned the only person I can control is myself and we had to figure out boundaries that work for us. STOP obsessing over what everyone else does not do. It's a waste of miserable energy. Instead focus on what Memory Care will keep her there even when the money runs out. Visit places. Work with a professional who has expertise in the area. Focus your energy on problem solving not blaming and resentment. You do not get to tell your siblings in law how to live their lives.[/quote]
