Today, my mother-in-maw informed us that she sold her house and is moving in with us so we'll "take care" of her in old age. She's in perfect health. We've only been married for 4 months. My wife can't stand her for more than 2 weeks at a time, let alone living with us. FML

It is obvious that she is doing this out if evil intentions so maybe try to put her in a nursing home and visit her every week at least.

I dunno. This mother-in-maw seems a little unstable. This is how people get stabbed.

Treat monster-in-law carefully, she is known to have evil powers and devious intentions.

Isn't it generally a good idea to ASK someone before you move in with them?

Yes. But common sense isn't nearly as common as the name would imply...

Are you saying that squatting is not an acceptable way of acquiring a home? Wow! I have been doing this wrong for some time now...

Well, seems like you and your wife need to stand up for yourselfes and your marriage and stop this right now. I love my mother and a have a wonderful MIL but I still wouldn't want to live under the same roof for the rest of my life.

It should be easy to put her off. Tell her that you expect rent payment, cleaning, cooking and when the kids come along: babysitting.

I don't understand this. It is your house, and her own daughter doesn't want her there either! This would not be an option for my own parents or my mother-in-law, and both of us agree on that. Get your shit together and tell mommy-in-law she's not welcome to stay.

Exactly. If her daughter wanted her I could see how it might be difficult but if she doesn't want her there either, why is it even open for discussion?! Organise her a place in a nice old people's home if she wants a secure future.
