[quote=Anonymous]If you have a difficult relationship with them, they know it. As a pp said, just tell them you are going to vacation somewhere else this year. If you are going to the Outer Banks, just say you are going to NC. In this day and age with cell phones, it isn't like our parents need to know which hotel we're at to get in touch with us in an emergency. My dh has a difficult relationship with his mom. We could only see her in small doses when we lived in the same suburb. Now we live out of state but when we visit she doesn't understand why we don't stay with her (we stay in a hotel) or spend whole days with her. You have to do what you need to do to stay sane. I am assuming that you don't want to send your kids without you - people probably glossed over the "difficult relationship" and sometimes that can carry over to criticizing the grandchildren, etc. [/quote]
