Um HELLO! She's smiling at you because she is using you and her son.  Give her a set date and time to move out and stick to it.  Sounds cruel I know but otherwise she'll knock back every place you find for her because she doesn't actually want to move away from you.  That's clear.  Your husband should be the one to give her her marching orders of course but, in the event that he's not assertive enough to do it then you'll need to step in.  This is awful for you and your mil is an incredibly selfish woman to put a pregnant woman of two children in this position.  Hmmm.  That sort of things really gets my goat!

Get someone from the real estate to tell your MIL that she has to leave. She might not take you seriously, but she should listen when someone from there tells her. Hopefully they'll scare her out.

well she needs to leave as you will get kicked out, so my advice to you is tell ehr she has two weeks to find a place or her belongings along with her will be out, not saying you need to go through with it but be persistant with her and keep telling her this will happen if she doesn't leave because you refuse to get kicked out onto the streets because she thinks it's a big joke!

i hope it all works out for you it must be hard for you guys

all the best hun xx

I think you have a lot of excellent advice here already.  I am wondering what your MIL does for an income.  I ask this because it occured to me that if she is not working she might be on some sort of centrelink  pension  I bet that would be subsidised somewhat if you were to report that she is living with you and not paying any rent for example.

You might want to drop this hint....even if it isn't how it would work, it might put the wind up her enough to realise she has to get off her arse and find somewhere before something happens to her income.

Just a thought.  Sometimes war means war. 

Dont be nasty about it, just say that if she is not prepared to leave then she is jeppardising a roof over all their heads and that threatens YOUR children, her Grandchildren, this makes you willing to go to any lengths to protect YOUR family including advising centrelink of her true circumstances.

worth a shot maybe.

I do wish you all the best

If you have no other choice and she going to make it hard, you might have to go back to the real estate and ask them can she be put on the list, as you dont want to lose your family home...Then if they agree with that, arrange to have her contribute to the rent and living expenses if she isnt doing so now... I cant believe after everything you guys have being through she is doing this,so if you want to chat privately leave a message in my mailbox mate, as i love to chat more on this but not here.....

Have you talked to your hubby about this?  Ask him to go to the real estate place and sort it out.  His mother - his problem.  Tell him that the whole thing is upsetting you and you really need him to fix it . That way you dont look like the horrible person trying to make his mother leave and if it comes to that he will have to tell her himself as it will be his problem.  sounds to me like you are the only one feeling stressed  over this and you are the only one who shouldn't be in that position.  Even if it goes against the grain I would be putting it on hubby to fix up the situation.

well first and foremost, SHE HAS TO GET OUT OF THERE! that is your house and she is invading  your space! and as you said, no you cant afford to get kicked out, you are a family for gods sakes, what about your kids??

do you have it in writing that she has to get out? sometimes thats all it takes for it to hit home.

another suggestion, and i dont say this lightly, when the kids are in bed, or better yet, out of the house, sit down with her, and say to her as tactfully as possible, 'get out before we are chucked out' well not in those words but you know what i mean. you gotta say it with such force that she knows ur not mucking around. whats it doing to your relationship with your husband for christ's sake! this might make you lock horns, (which is y i said to do it when theres no kids around) but at least if you do, as horrible as it is, she will know you mean business.

and last but not least, if she still wont bugger off, ring the real estate. more often than not, if you describe to them that you know shes not allowed to be there, but she just wont go no matter what you do, and youreally dont want to lose the house, sometimes they can offer you some sort of alternative.

good luck and i hope it all works itself out for you soon.
