[quote=Anonymous]You can do 5 days and then take of for 5 days. It is not something to fight about. Parents can come for as long as they want to, whenever they want to - but you or your spouse do not have to cater to them. My mom lives with my eldest brother. My SIL does not do anything for my mom. My brother has hired a daily cook and cleaning person. My mom pays him enough money so that a lot of his costs are subsidized. My mom pays for her own meds etc. My brother is responsible for her tasks - paperwork, travel, dr visit etc and not my SIL. This is the way our family operates. You look after the parents and ILs but you put support in place so the spouse does not have to deal with it. As for your need to sit them down and talk to them. Please don't. It will only make matters worse and result in deep wounds that will not heal. Of course this is my two cents. YMMV.[/quote]
