[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your sister absolutely needs to take care of this. Her checking out is not an option in any way. Frankly, I'd tell her to get her A$$ in gear in reparation for all the work your mother provided to her (assuming your mother was not financially compensated by your sister) or she can forget about having any kind of relationship with you and your family going forward.

I don't understand this at all. OP, you need to deal with this, not your wife. At all. Grow a set.[/quote]

If I one day have the ability to watch my precious grandchildren, I would be doing that because I wanted to NOT because I expected my DIL to provide free eldercare for me when I'm old.

If you think that playing Go Fish with a 4 year old is the same thing as providing eldercare then you have done neither and you don't know any better.

Wow , how skewed! The mother had two sets of grandchildren and by your logic she probably truly loved only one of them. Can she hope to count on her favorite daughter to take care of her in sickness then? Because her daughter in law is obviously traumatized by the unfair and obviously dismissive treatment.[/quote]
