My wife and I are providing for my MIL (aka she is living with us and not working) and she has barely cracked 60.

She does provide some childcare for us, but man is she lazy as shit while doing so... Just throws on TV and screws around on her phone. Somehow my wife can't even work full time despite the fact that her mother is home almost all the time, that's how bad it is.
