I remember times when we would be in financial ruins (mostly because of my then-husbands drinking/drug abuse) and we would be staying with his parents in order to get back on top of things (Yes - I finally got smart about 7 years ago and left).
I never had much money to contribute, and I scrubbed their home down from top to bottom many, many times, prepared many, many meals for them (usually while husband sat on ass) and even helped them with renovation projects. To this day I would defend I payed my way. And I would never, ever want to go through that again.
