Don’t want MIL living with us

[Justlivelovelaugheat]

I feel awful writing this. My MIL is the loveliest. I feel like the grinch. My husband really wants to move her in to help with the kids and have a closer family unit but I feel like it’ll be more of a hindrance than a help. I love my privacy. Walking around, hair looking a bit crazy, don’t have to worry about nobody judging me and my parenting skills. And above all I feel like if husband and I disagree then it won’t be 2 against 1. Has anyone ever had a successful story with any in laws moving into your gaff?

97 pct YANBU! 😅Think you have your answer

It will end in tears. It always does.

My mother lived with her mother in law (and me and my sister and my father) for 13 years. MIL did have her own rooms in the house but my mother said and will still say at the grand age of 92, “Never, Ever, Ever, live with your mother in law”. Wise advice.
