My wife and I live in a remodeled school bus in north Ar. since our trailer house was reposessed last spring.She wants her mother to move in with us but Idont think ther will be enough room with us and our three children.There is barly room for all my deer heads and my wifes 3 sewing machines. I hope the bait business does better next year, I gues no body wants to buy crickets and worms when gas is $3 a gallon.Maybe we can get a new place nxt year.What should I tell my wife so I don't hurt her feelings about her mom. Please help!

well lets take this the tuff love way. God said that when you marry you are to put husband wife & kids 1st. not mommy & daddy. now look we are all grown adults right? if common scence dont allow her to think of her kids 1st & not mmmy, then she needs to grt a job and support mom. but look you live in a bus, how much privacy do she think that you guys will have/ come on tell youre wife how you feel before you find yourselves in divorce court cause the pressure is too much. im sure there is a lot of tention in the bus. just talk to her if she loves her family she will see the big picture. that there is no room for mommy dearest. good luck, if this is not helpful then the best thing you can do is go to God in prayer. i pray that your bait & worms do better. hey you cant go to a day labor. how about applying for hud. they provide housing for low income famlies. by the way you better do something like that before the state take youure kids away for not having the proper aduaqate living for the kids. like i said talk to her.

She should not have even ask you can her mom stay but what you need to do is let her move her mom in then give them no space to turn then she will move on.Then you want have to say no cause she will not be able toi stay in a small space i hope for you

Well if her mom moves in she can help with the kid and give you and your wife some alone time....BUt if you are really against it then just show her this post. Tell her you love her and her mom it would just be too much on all of you. good luck

Put an addition on your school bus. Get a nice outhouse and call it "mother-in-law quarters." Many nice houses offer add-ons for extra people.

First of all, get a place to live, like a house or Trailer. Then get a real JOB.

May be she has not think of the space constrain. Ask her to organise the place and where is can put her mon. Looking at what you describe, it is hard for her to make extra space actually. But if she can, then you just have to listen to her. If not, I think she should know what to say to her mom.

You could always trade in your old bus for a double decker. If you need money for your new bus, you could breed hampsters and sell em for 50 cents each.

Tell her you think those living arrangements will be a bit cramped and perhaps next year if your financial situation improves, you might consider it.
