[quote=Anonymous] No, unless you and DH are psychologically prepared to take care of her 100% and manage all her demands. Does your DH realize that these things will also affect him, his finances, and his daily life? Or does he think that she will pay her own way and be an unobtrusive presence or even a help around the house and with childcare? You have to tell her: "Mother, I cannot help you in any way whatsoever, let alone welcome you into my house, if my siblings and I don't have complete control of your finances. You expect everything from us, yet can't even extend the courtesy to share vital information with us. Show us your accounts, and we will figure out a way to help you." My mother and her siblings pooled their resources to rent a small apartment for my grandmother, plus a maid who cooked and helped her bathe every day. It was the best solution for everyone. [/quote]
