Re: Another one of those threads
^Before getting married he always said his parents werent the type to move in and rely on their kids and that most likely they would let us live our lives...so much for that
Physically they can take care of themselves but mentally they are very weak and dependent on my husband. My father in law barely made enough money to get them by. He never worked his way up or tried to make a better future for his family. He is caring and all but in the department of giving them a good living he was terrible. They lived in a small apartment with roaches, bedbugs and rats for 10 years. My mother in law never bought a house because she claimed it wasn't Islamic (interest)..now she wants to jump in with us.She always needs someone to be there with her someone who can take care of her and thats getting a little our of hand now and I feel trapped. I hate living like this and my husband is being very stubborn about them moving in.
She always tells him(she has another son) that you are my world. I am only living for you etc etc and he feels bad. I can understand that emotional talk because it really affects him and makes him turn towards her more. She always brags about what an obedient son he is and how she can't live without seeing him or talking to him everyday. She tells him all the stories about how her in laws bothered her etc etc and he feels even more sorry for her. I mean is this too much or am I being overdramatic folks?
