[quote=Anonymous]A friend just got engaged after less than a year of dating.This will be a second marriage for both parties though my friend had a very brief "starter marriage" with no kids and her intended was married basically 15-20 years with kids. She doesn't want a fussy second wedding and plans to go to the Courthouse with a dinner that night. However, she thinks it would be great for her new DH to pull his 3 kids from school for a week and honeymoon in Disney as a family. The idea is to bond because her FSK live in another state and have only alternating major holidays and a month in summer here with their dad. think this is a horrible idea. 
1. A honeymoon is supposed to be a romantic time for the newlywed couple to enjoy each other without family or friends intruding.
2. Bonding trips for blended families are almost always stressful. Why bring that vibe into your honeymoon.
3. Although the ES-age FSK might be thrilled by a week off school, the MS and HS siblings might resent it. It could also create a wedge with the XW/mom.

How do I tell my friend all these things nicely and gently?[/quote]
