    Multi-generational living is increasingly popular.

    People are turning to “mother-in-law suites” for homes for aging parents so they can keep them close by and make them a more integrated part of the family. Whether it’s a casita in the back yard, rooms converted in the house or an addition to the house, mother-in-law suites make a lot of sense. When you create one, you make for a better living situation for both parents and family in that a mother-in-law suite allows for privacy and independence to be established, at the same time allowing both parties to enjoy spending time together, making the family closer.

    Mother-in-law suites call for specific adjustments for the aged.

    Mother-in-law suites can be as big and complex as you like or as small as one bedroom and bath. But, there are certain needs that the elderly have that require taking into account when building, for instance a location on the ground floor—since the elderly generally have trouble going up and down stairs. Other accommodations for the elderly include wider hallways, no-slip flooring, and guardrails in the shower, among others. Altogether, it takes experts in creating spaces for the elderly and you will need help in making choices about what to do to create a place for your elderly relatives who come to stay with you.

    A mother-in-law suite adds great value to your home.

    Another great thing about mother-in-law suites is that they add value to your home and at the same time can be used for multiple purposes, including for a guest suite. They can be converted into an office, or additional bedroom, be used for crafts or other hobbies, or whatever need you might have. If the unit is free-standing, that is with a kitchen, bedroom, bath, and sitting area, of course, it can be rented out. And, someone suggested that you might move in yourself when you reach the elderly status.

    1. Multi-generational living is increasingly popular. People are turning to mother-in-law suites for homes for aging parents so they can keep them close by and make them a more integrated part of the family. Whether it’s a casita in the back yard, rooms converted in the house or an addition to the house, mother-in-law suites make a lot of sense. When you create one, you make for a better living situation for both parents and family in that privacy and independence can be established, at the same time allowing both parties to enjoy spending time together, making the family closer.

    2. Mother-in-law suites add value to your home! A great thing about mother-in-law suites is that they add value to your home and at the same time can eventually be used for multiple purposes, including for a guest suite. They can be converted into an office, or additional bedroom, be used for crafts or other hobbies, or whatever need you might have. It can also be rented out. And, someone suggested that you might move in yourself when you reach the elderly status.

    3. Your parents took care of you for years; is it time for you to return the favor? You can create a space for them with a mother-in-law suite in the back yard, an added-on suite, or one converted from the garage. It’s a major undertaking, but the results in family closeness and time to spend together make up for the expense. Many American families are making this choice for their elderly parents considering the cost of assisted-living facilities. And, multi-generational homes are becoming more popular because of the added joys that come from grandparents close by. Not only that, the project adds great value to your home.

    4. Millions of Baby Boomer grandparents live in mother-in-law suites. While in-law suites have been around for centuries, they are being newly appreciated in the United States as millions of Baby Boomer grandparents are retiring to live in mother-in-law suites close by their children and grandchildren. Reasons are both practical and economical as alternatives to assisted living, nursing homes, or retirement communities. But, of course, the wonderful bonus comes in the form of greater contact with family members in loving and secure home.

    5. Boomerang kids like mother-law-suites, too. Do you have boomerang kids in your home? Boomerang kids—adult children returning home or recent college grads can fi nd greater independence and privacy in mother-in-law suites. Disabled, adult family members can find use of them too, or friends and relatives needing a place to stay during a job transition. Mother-in-law suites can also be used as guest quarters for friends and family from out of town. And, of course, they can be used for the grandparents who want to be closer to their children and grandchildren, and enjoy the love and sociality that results.

    6. Grandparents want the independence and privacy found in a mother-in-law suite. Imagine yourself a grandparent living with your son or daughter’s family. Things get kind of hectic in the kitchen and there’s controversy over what to watch on the TV in the family room. And, your grandchildren sometimes are a little too loud and lively. Of course, some grandparents don’t have much choice and they make do. But, wouldn’t it be nice if they had their own apartment to retire to when things get to be too much—an apartment with a sitting area with their own TV, bedroom, bath, and kitchenette (small kitchen)? They would love it, and it’s all possible.

    For aging parents, there are certain specifics that may be needed when constructing a mother-in-law apartment or suite.
