[quote=Anonymous]DH picked this city as family vacation, and he just wanted to enjoy vacation. I was the one looking for flights, hotels, tickets for paid admissions, daily plan etc. Kids also looked forward to this vacation. Kids are handy, but things have been so far so good until tonight which is the last day of vacation. What happened was 1 kid ate 2 crackers against DH's not to eat snack order, and the reason behind was that we were about to head out to eat dinner after my shower. I and 2 kids went to the hotel pool before dinner ,and 1 kid got hungry and ate snacks while I was showering. Once I was done of showering and came out, and all I heard was DH's yelling at 1 kid about his behavior, not listening and how unhappy and unenjoyable this vacation was, how regretable that he had kid, and he would definitely kick him out of house at age 18 etc. He said we could go on with our dinner plan and be a happy family without him and he would not join us to have dinner. It was agreed that he goggled/picked dinner restaurant choice while I took kids to play at hotel pool.

I was furious that that's how our vacation ended on the last day, and I asked him a few times if he really meant that and so. It was dead silence and cold war. Anyways, long story short, no one had dinner and everyone just went to bed with hunger. The youngest, age 3, got freaked out a bit, and she fell asleep by herself. The kid that got in trouble was the oldest, age 7. Kids are young, so I planned our family vacation with zoo, aquarium, kid museum, hotel pool, and some playground time. I told him about that in advance, and he never commented it was bad idea. He hate pool and beach, so we don't do beach trip and he never go to hotel pool/swimming pool with kids ever. I know he regrets to have kids because kids are handful and life/vacation is not fun anymore compared to childless life. What did I do wrong at vacation that we deserve to have no dinner like this? He is a jerk, right? I was mad for everything, and I could not take kids out to dinner under those atmosphere or to make things worse.
