Combined household

[Hotpinkangel19]

Combining households? I know some people have moved in their partner etc, but what do you think about PIL? My MIL is mostly bedbound, FIL is sole carer and he's not coping at all. She's depressed, and anxious and he's not able to cope. He has no break and no help. They live with his father, a bully, who takes what little money the have from them and just sneers at their situation whilst not helping them at all.
WIBU yo move them in here with us until lockdown is over? I could help them both and give him a break too.
I'm prepared to be flamed for considering it.

If the dad is truly a bully who takes their money then it’s abuse and they’re allowed to move out. What will happen after lockdown though? When you say he takes all their money?

He begged them to move in once his wife had died, and takes their benefit money and leaves them with that little they are in debt trying to pay bills. Hopefully we can work something out for after but I'm worried about their mental health, everywhere is so busy I think applying for respite would work at this time.

That’s a kind thing to do. Not sure I could do it, but I applaud you for thinking of it.
You say MIL is bed ridden - is she vulnerable and would the risk change if she moved to your house?
Hope it works out for you all.
