It is hard being a parent, damned if you do, damned if you don't. Good luck I hope it works out well.0

I was thinking the same,. This is the recent thread where the boyfriend wasn't happy with his girlfriends parents' suggestion of how they wanted to protect their cash put towards buying the house for their daughter and the OP:It's scenerios like this then I wouldn't bother and let them fund it themselves.
There was a similar one not so long ago, this was from the other side - a bloke and partners parents were funding the deposit and they wanted to ensure she got it back if there was a split. I advised it's best to decline the offer.
Gifted deposit and protecting contribution.

No one wants relationships to break down, but unfortunately they do, and when they do, things can get quickly out of hand especially around financial matters. Therefore, I would suggest registering a charge.
