[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like they were ill prepared to take on the task for such an extended length of time. I don't think it was your fault or their fault. I bet that they are just dead dog tired and it's going to take a while for them to have enough rest and distance from the trip to be able to look back on it without resentment. I would just continue to apologize that it was so hard on them, and let them know that you appreciate everything they did. Be the bigger person here for a while. Give them a couple of months to recover. Then, you can sit down and talk about it (or not). People forget how hard it is to take care of kids. Even parents of teens forget how hard it is to look after babies and toddlers. And older folks don't have the stamina to survive it as long. [/quote]
