In-law problems?
-
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? -

Assuming you are not living together.

My dad has heart problems. Mum just had an operation last year due to medical condition. Brother still has slight depression.

Same same
When FIL was bedridden for several months, MIL & maid took care of him. However, if MIL became weak, then it's only right that her children should take care of her with the help of maid.
However, I strongly suspect BIL & his 精打细算 wife confirm will :siam: As it is, they already kick MIL out after she ran out of usefulness to them and MIL had no choice but to move back to her own house. So sad. Before that she was babysitting BIL's two kids ever since they were born. -
i always tink of that. Both my SILs fr. dh side n my side r super lazy type(they themselves n their children were taken care by maids,MIL n my mum).They surely won’t be the one who take care of them.
Once i told myself i’ve to take care of my mum,but she chose to stay wf my brother.She always tells me that she could depend on my brother while can forget abt me.She said she had given all her money to my brother coz he takes care of her.Inside my heart,i am thinking,it is my mum who takes care of my brother n his children le…I am the one who sends her to see doctor when she sick…She forgotten abt it…doesn’t matter… -

Is that why you're migrating :evil: move super far awayshe can criticize me alone,but i couldn't stand her criticize me when my kiddo,my mother n sis in law ard.
Few times,she made fun of my bloated figure when her relatives came over to see the baby,during my confinement.
her fav past time is making phone calls, stir up prob n see doctor/specialist. Being rich n kiasi,i think she had visited most specialists in sg.
at times,i don't understand why she cannot speak probably,muz always make sarcastic remarks.....don't bother liao...she oredi a history....
I don't suppose your dh bring his parents along?
Then who will be taking care of them? Your dh got other siblings? -

My DH also buys tonic for them. I try to go when I can. DH insist I exercise partly because he also scared we not fit enough to take care of so many ppl.
