Then you want to share the cameras using the "friend" account feature.

You can do this in both directions (sharing your cameras with your son in law, and vice versa).

 

Although the articles don't say this, this seems to work better if you accept the invitation on a PC.  You accept it by clicking on "create account" in the invite email.  That should open your browser to my.arlo.com.  Obviously you don't create an account (since you both already have them).  But after you log in to your existing account, you should see the shared cameras.

Are these two systems accessed from different accounts?

Good Morning, Yes they are 2 separate accounts. 1 Acct. in GA & the other Acct in FL. Mine in GA & my Son In Law's in FL

Thanks for your response. I was able to get the FL system to connect 

Your advise was spot on
