When Mom Moves In

Making it Work!

  • Talk about everybody’s expectations before she moves in around the following topics:
    • Childcare
    • Housework
    • Money
    • Time together
    • Time apart
  • Parents get the final say about how the kids are raised
  • Don’t be the go-between your mother and your spouse. Encourage direct communication
  • Don’t let resentments build up
  • Don’t process every gripe that you have. Let some of the little things go
  • Adult children should know that their parent may feel guilty or like they’re a burden
  • Parents should know that their adult children may feel over-controlled or intruded upon
