In-law problems?
-
My MIL has mental problem.
If i ask her how do cook certain dishes or cooking tactics,she always says she forgot,ask me to chk wf my mum. OK,so I don’t bother to ask her.Few times,I picked up the calls for my dh,instead of telling me directly how to cook,etc,she asked my dh to talk to her.Even if she wanna tell me,she’ll say,"err…ok…i think make no difference of telling u also."
few times,i also kena the same experience as Janet. Called n asked her how she is,wow…cannot stand her sarcastic remarks…she said,"why call me?nid my help ah?"
"why buy this for me? nid my help ah?" that’s it…never again also…sayonara to her. -
Have you gals thought of the scenario when your .MIL become weak and need to be taken care of intensively? Can’t just leave to maid without supervision at all. So what are you gonna do if such a situation arise?
Assuming you are not living together. -

I dread to think of that...bcos it could happen. But if that scenario happens, I think they have to chip in to get a maid. My grandmother is in that scenario now. When I visited her at the hospital yesterday, it pains me to see her weak and incapable of looking after herself...but she is still very fierce.Have you gals thought of the scenario when your .MIL become weak and need to be taken care of intensively?

Which daughter-in-law is willing to look after her? -
Thinking of worst case scenario. Hopefully won't
MIL has two sons. Besides sharing cost of maid, I think dh & his brother can take turn to move back to live with their mum & also supervise the maid.
Maybe each taking 3.5 days of the week. Have to work out something, I don't think it's prudent to leave MIL completely alone with maid.
Won't be easy for the DILs either. Have to run things at home entirely on their own in the meantime.
Sound feasible? -

My dad has heart problems. Mum just had an operation last year due to medical condition. Brother still has slight depression.
Honestly if anything happen to anyone of them, seriously I will be the next one having depression. What do u suggest I do if things become worse? -
