If you have a mother in-law would you like her living next door to you?

Probably not because I would feel that's just too close and that she may interfere in the or spy on us haha, however, I did actually live in that type of situation where my mother-in-law lived right next door and she was the greatest. We were very close.

My mother-in-law actually did used to live next door to me for quite a long time and we just loved each other so much. She was the best.

My mother-in-law did live next door to me and I loved it. She was more of a mother to me than my own mother and I loved her very much. She treated me good. It takes two to make things work. It was not a chore loving her at all. She did love me and she was a great Christian lady. It takes both parties to treat each other lovingly and with respect. And if there's problems then you talk them out you don't hold them in and gossip about the other person. You go to that person and work it out so you can both be happy.

I don’t have one but I would never ever live next door to one

She is contributing to global warming now, along with my FIL as they have raised the flames in hell to a new level.

When she was alive, most days, I would not have minded seeing her run over by a truck. The rest of the days, I wanted to be driving the truck.

Yes id live next door lol
Free cakes

My mother-in-law has passed away but she was a wonderful person and if our family had lived next door to her and my father-in-law it would have been sweet.

Maybe. It would be easier when we help her or she helps us that it's just the next door. But it can become overwhelming if we would see her too much too. We have 15 minutes bus ride to her now and then a 10 minute walk. I think it works great so far.

done that before.

never ever ever ever again..

Depends .. if she's nice and is a good cook then yeah :D

my son's MIL has lived in the condo over them and now she built her townhouse so she can go out her back door into theirs.

Next door is probably better than same house...

And send the kids next door to see their grandma to have some alone time with the partner, if you know what I mean ;)

Hypothetically if I had all that

I'll do you one better, for the last year of her life I had to live WITH my mother-in-law in her house and she did not like me at all!

My aunt and uncle lived next to me and I didn't get a moments peace.

Definitely not. Whether she's nice or not, it's not healthy for your family to be that close to parents.
Later in life...maybe

She lived in a nursing home a short walk away. Just far enough that she couldn't make it to ours on her own

love her then it'll be better if she feels comfortable
I'll wish to live with her 🙇‍♀️

My MIL, I think I could handle it more than my spouse.
My step MIL, no we'd move.

No. Marriage has many negatives for me. This would be one.

It would have been okay, but it was better having her 800 miles away.

HARD pass.

She’s a great help with young children right?

Ya, why not. Always home cooked meals lol

Maybe

No. My wife wouldn't want that either.

No way, she passed like 40 years ago

Not in this lifetime!

What happened?

Your pic captures my MIL rather well ...

The apron strings were cut....leave them that way

No way!

RUN

No way

No thank you

9 people have lied in your poll 😂

JC woman!! What a question to ask on Christmas day!! Not much it keeping with the season of giving. 😂

oh....... never mind, I see the date now. *goes back to the rock he crawled out from under*

Oh Hell No!

i’d invite her to share our bed

Not only no but hell no. Those are divorce words

Actually yes. She speaks Chinese dialect so I have no idea what she says, I go by her body language and she understands some English because she says thank you and ok. I love it when she visits us 👍🙂. Pretty damn good cook too.

Until we moved across the Bay she practically did. But I was really lucky in that we liked each other.

Not the horrible old scrounging mother-in-law I had.

whats a mother in law

My cousin has his mother in law moved in next door!!
