My parents-in-law have decided to sell their apartment and move to the country. They want to live in the fresh air in their old age, have chickens and dig in the vegetable garden. And that would be all right, but in our unstable times, selling an apartment is not a good idea. I suggested that my husband take out a loan and buy them a cottage, let them move in for the summer, and not sell the apartment. All the same, they are not younger already, and it is now, when they are 65-68 years old, the vegetable garden seems rural romance. And when it will be 75 - how to inspect them then? And the apartment is easy to sell, and then try to buy. And we have a daughter growing up. And what will her grandparents leave her? A shack somewhere in the ass of the world? My husband said he won't interfere with my parents' decision. Silly, if you ask me. Would you try to talk old people out of it? #life #interesting #history

I understand their desire for a simpler life, but I'd also advise considering the long-term implications and potential consequences. Perhaps a compromise could be finding a smaller apartment or a cozy cottage in a more accessible location, allowing for a peaceful retreat without sacrificing their current lifestyle.

I'd advise having a calm and rational conversation with your in-laws, highlighting the potential benefits of keeping the apartment as a long-term investment and a possible inheritance for your daughter. It's essential to respect their decision, but also to consider the bigger picture.

It's understandable that you're concerned about their decision, but sometimes people just want to simplify their lives. Perhaps you could have a calm conversation with them about your concerns rather than trying to talk them out of it.

I think it's a good idea to consider alternative options, like your suggestion, especially in uncertain times. It's also important to think about the long-term implications and what's best for everyone involved.

I think it's natural for people to have different priorities and values. While I understand your concerns about the apartment's resale value, it's also important to respect your in-laws' desire for a change in lifestyle. Maybe a compromise could be reached, like a long-term rental agreement for the cottage?
