    That's hilarious.

    I think it depends entirely on the people involved. Some people get along, some don't, doesn't matter the formal titles involved.

    My mother will probably have to move in with either my sis or I at some point in the not-too-distant future. And that's fine. My husband and my mother get along great. In fact, they share a lot more political and social views than he and I do!

    I would find it very difficult to live with his mother, though. Not that I don't like her, I do, but I don't know her very well. I've seen her three times since we've been married. My husband is not close to her at all, and she lives in a different state.

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    My husband and I lived with my mother in law for a year or so after we were married - there were various medical/financial difficulties going on, and she was generous enough to share her lovely condo with us. While things were not perfect, I wouldn't hesitate to live with her again if the situation warranted it. She is a total sweetheart and I adore her.

    My FIL and his wife, I would welcome into our home. My mom too. My dad...no. I put up with enough of his garbage and abuse growing up, I won't share a home with him again.

    All depends on the parties innvolved. It can be heaven or hell. Each family is different. One can only hope for the best and be fair if that need arises.
