[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the previous posters - saying, "No thanks, we don't think Larlo is ready for that just yet" is helpful. Or suck it up, rent the hotel room next door and have your son stay with you. He would still get the vacation with the grandparents and cousin, but you will be there - best of both worlds! FWIW, my husband and I both have older parents and we pre-empted this when I was pregnant. We let them know that we would welcome any time they wanted to spend with our son, but solo vacations were not in the card. If they had an interest - we could potentially do something together. Luckily, I work from home and daycare is 5 minutes away. MIL has expressed interest in watching him for the full day- and I always suggest starting at a half day first - and going from there. I pick him up at lunch - he comes home naps and then plays with her for a couple of hours. She is so wiped out- that she always tells me- I am soooo glad we didn't do a full day. [/quote]
