[quote=Anonymous]DH is a big weekend/day off napper, when the opportunity arises. It’s never a quick cat nap, it’s a two-hour long event. Whenever we go on vacation, he expects and anticipates napping mid-day, and if we don’t head back to the hotel, he slogs between 4-dinner time. This was fine when our kids were younger and also napped, but it’s annoying and unfair now that they are tweens and teens. It’s unfair because the options are to hang back at the hotel and wait, or head out on an experience that they want to enjoy with dad, whatever it is we are doing while he naps. Less important but worth noting is the unfairness to me because it’s not like I get a similar break; in fact, I would find it incredibly selfish to take two hours every day for myself on family vacation. We coordinated and paid money to take this trip, it seems foolish to waste 14 waking hours of the trip on naps. We don’t get up early, we head to bed at a reasonable time. I don’t understand how he needs a nap at 3pm when he was up at 8am and will head to bed by 11pm.

But maybe I’m wrong here? I’m curious what you think of this? [/quote]
