[quote=Anonymous]My grandmother died and I will be attending her funeral. I need to decide whether to take my kids, DS1 age 2 months and DS2 age 2.5 years. The funeral is a 6 hour drive away. I’m reluctant to take my children because I’m estranged from my mother and stepfather. I have not seen them in 6 years and they’ve never met my children. They will be at the funeral. Option A: I attend funeral with DH, spend only one night in town, and leave my children at home with nanny and in laws. Option B: I attend funeral and bring DH and my children and we spend 3 nights in town. The upside is there may be opportunities to see other family that I do really like. The downside is travel at this age is hard, my siblings have been hard to pin down with plans, and it will be including my children in an unpredictable situation. Should I go with option A or option B?[/quote]
