[quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHM and we are very middle income (H makes $120,000). We live close to my family, and as a result H wants to see his family 4x a year. As a family of 4 this gets very expensive (flights are about $1200 all together each trip, and we stay for free with his family). As I SAH I am ok with all the travel but we have finally assembled a budget and unlimited travel is not within our means (more like $1000 per year). He will not have a conversation with me about missing one of the 4 trips with his family because he thinks I am disregarding his emotional attachment to them (he misses them) etc. This seems like maybe a cut and dry case of you can't always get what you want, but his insistence to spend the money we don't have on his family trips to make things fair (between family time) feels immature. I would like to hear others' thoughts on this. Thank you![/quote]
