[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the hell would adult children with their own fiancés want to spend vacation time with their parents’ friends and their children? I thought you were going to be telling a story about ten year olds and tweens not being into it. Your children are adults and surely would prefer to pick who they vacation with. I would have been surly too, if I was being asked to spend all my meals with other random adults I was not friends with. What were the circumstances of your kids coming? Did you ask as them to do you a favor where you would pay for it? And they didn’t realize how much of it would be spending time as a big group with the other families?

The whole thing just seems utterly bizarre that 31 year old children would be part of a “families” vacation organized by the parent generation[/quote]

This is harsh but was my reaction as well.  Families traveling with kids in their 20s and late 20s at that it sounds like?

Your adult children apparently don’t like the other adults.  So as adults they should feel free to politely decline and not spend time with them.  As long a they weren't rude I don’t see what the problem is.  That doesn’t sound dysfunctional.[/quote]
