I agree with JeanieK!
I would explain to your husband...that the more you hold them up the longer its going to take for them to stand on their feet. I have had a similar situation with a friend that I ended up moving in to my house, me not working, my husband being the only one in the family working, we have a young daughter, paying her bills and ours, buying her groceries, it was never ending! Then she started getting in to legal trouble.
We ended up making her move out and find her own place...regardless of her financial situation. Then once we did, she started taking care of her self.
I know you want to help them, but some times helping someone is letting them help themselves.
