[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: Our kids are 10 and 4. She would not be open to living in an apartment, unfortunately. 🫠[/quote] That’s a her problem not a you problem. But give it time. She’s not widowed yet, and she may feel differently once her DH has passed. I’m sorry you’re in such a tricky situation. [/quote] I agree. That's her problem. You don't have to move her in and disrupt your family because she's not open to living in an apartment. You need to figure out what your boundaries are and let her manage her own emotional response. Likely, once she's processed that she will not be moving in, she will get comfortable living in a nearby apartment. But if she doesn't, she can live alone where she's at now until she can't, at which point you put her in assisted living. [/quote]
