[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why you haven't yet announced that this doesn't work for you. Working during an uncomfortable vacation??? Heck no. I would announce that my preferred dates for vacations are X-to-Y, and could we please rent a larger house? If it's not possible, then bow out and do your own thing. [/quote]

OP here - I’ve pushed back before and my mom gets really upset so don’t want to hurt her feelings! This is her side of the family and she’s looked forward to having her own grandkids on this trip as long as I can remember. The beach where we stay at has all these July 4 traditions that she wants to do with our kids too , and a part of me does too - but has very few rentals available which is why we haven’t changed accommodations. She and my aunts and uncles would be devastated if we stayed elsewhere or didn’t come. My dad is more understanding but spends most of the trip golfing with friends anyways [/quote]

Look, you can either disappoint your mom now, or disappoint her later, or disappoint yourself. Best to do 2025 and then not do it again. Disappoint her now while she has all her mental health and can understand. [/quote]
