[quote=Anonymous]I always see these beach photos of huge groups of friends and family and it always looks like such a good time. We went to the beach with five other families and I came back really disliking two families. One family I barely knew but like previously. Another wife I always wasn’t a fan of and now actively dislike. Another family had a kid who was violent and hitting, tantruming and making parents miserable. All the couples seem to be fighting, wives mad at husbands for drinking too much. I do think the kids had a great time. The last time we went on a trip like this, my very good friend’s daughter was being mean to my child and it ended up escalating between the parents and my very good friend and I had a falling out over this. We technically made up but we don’t hang out the way we used to. Are these beach vacations enjoyable for others? While it wasn’t a huge deal, the eating together was also unnecessarily difficult with the gluten free healthy eating mom, early meal family, late dinner family, family who doesn’t pay, contribute, or clean. I think I want to travel with just our family or with one family at a time.[/quote]
