Default Re: Moving in with my son

It sounds like this could be a win/win situation as long as your personal space is respected.

I can understand your concern as you will be under another woman's roof and you don't necessarily agree on many things. I suggest that, when there are frictionsbetween the parents and their children, you make yourself scarce. If you have this urge to speak to a subject concerning child rearing, you might have to almost bite your tongue off but do not offer any advice that isne't expressly asked for.

Your strength will be your ability to simply listen without becoming involved, IMHO. If you are relatively successful with this approach, the I feel that your counsel will be sought without the chance that resentments build.

Good Luck!
