What do you think about a man who drops his wife off to other people's house?

maybe she doesnt think that she can object.. my mom is 65 and she thinks that her generation that all the women should obey the men etc so maybe she has that kind of mindset.. its said =(

My first question would be why don't they have a place of their own to live, you say the man is 62. There are many programs out there like Section 8 and HUD housing to get them in off the street. What do they do at night when he gets off work, do they sleep in the street or in the car, YOu state the wife and him don't have a place to live on their own, why not, now do they live other than when he goes to work? Why isn't the family finding somewhere for these people to go. There seems to be more to this story than you are stating, you said these are you inlaws, why don't they stay with you? I don't understand.

what solution u suggest?if that is happening with the consent of all there is nothing wrong.probably at places she visits there may be non working ladies and so when this lady goes there all they have good pass time nothing wrong.

Hi cream97! To be honest with you, I do pity your mother in law and at the same time I find her weird! It is very uncomfortable to be waiting at another's house for long hours. However, if I am in her shoes I will appreciate whatever kindness given to me while I am waiting and I won't just sit around and make other people's lives miserable because I am miserable. It would be better if she would help you in your home. Take Care and God Bless! Happy Mylotting!

Probably because she feels that he is taking care of her. This is a sad situation for anyone to be in.

If I were her, I'd rather be 'toted around' to people's houses than be homeless, because that's what it sounds like you are saying. It's a little hard to believe though, to be honest, that it would be that way... where do they stay when the husband is not working? Are you saying they have a home but the husband doesn't let her stay there while he works? If so, that sounds like a pretty strange setup and I don't know why the woman puts up with it. But then, they are from a different generation so, maybe that's just how that family does things? My own grandparents had some pretty strange, inexplicable habits, and really it's just a product of how they lived when they were young...

I'd worry more about why a couple in their 50's and 60's have no home of their own. At least he is trying to make sure she has somewhere to stay while he works...rather than leaving her on a bus stop bench or something. A few years ago, the parents of a friend of mine ended up in a bad situation. Her dad had a stroke and ended up in a nursing home and her mom had no way to pay their rent. She had to go around to their kids trying to find one that would let her stay with them. She finally got one of their sons to let her stay on their couch in exchange for babysitting. All I could think was, I do not want to be 50 odd years old and homeless... **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

Mabey she really loves him.and doesnt wanna be away from him therefore she will do anything to be with him. or could be the fact that she is afriad of being alone so she deal with it. so she is not alone.. Mabey she just really doesnt wanna work and she knows that if she doesnt wanna work this is what she has to put up with. theres so many reasons. who knows. but im sorry to hear:(. i hope they find a place soon. its no fun being basicly homeless:(...

There could be any number of reasons why she is allowing this to happen to her.Have you talked to her about it and asked why she allows him to treat her this way?Maybe she is afraid of him?Maybe she doesnt know how to stand up for herself?Maybe he thinks she is lonely and wants company during the day?I would try and figure out the whole situation from her first.

I have never ran across anyone like this, and I myself could not stand it. I would have to have a place of my own.
