Poll - Would You Ever | Thread profile

1) Have FMIL or Mother live with you if she was in need? 2) Would you ever buy her house live in it and build a mother daughter for her to live in and in return be a stay at home mom? ~Denise and Brian ~ 01.24.09 My Bio 306 12 Yes 0 No 294 250 Min RSVP Date: 12/22

I think the dynamics of having her move into YOUR house and buying out her house and living in it is very different. Although technically its now YOUR house it will always be HER house.

Absolutely not. Not my mom, not his mom, not the neighbor's mom, none of 'em. I do too much divorce work & I've seen too many divorces that occurred because one or both of the spouses' parents were too involved in their relationship.

Yes to both- it's something I have thought a lot about. I think that prior generations (and other cultures) did/do a lot better of a job caring for their elders. I've spent some time in Sicily with my family where it is the norm for generations to live together and franky I think everyone benefits, especially your children who get to grow up with their grandparents around. In my case it will likely be my father and my MIL, but I...

1) My mom - definitely YES; His mom - yes, but if there is no other option and only temporarily. 2) HELLLLLLLL NO!

yes, to both, but ground rules would quickly be established ~ allie & bill 10.10.08 | my bio | epics | non-pro | pro-teasers ~

Yes to both. Seperate living spaces are a must. I agree with what Melissa/Kalypso said. BIO -...updated 6-22 We're Married! 7-25-08 Thank You Card Design by Jenn/Designgirl14
