[quote=Anonymous]My father is eldest of six siblings. They and spouses have been going on big trips every two years for a while. When we were younger, kids were included, but as we got older, and the locations became nicer, we were not invited. FF to present day....they continue to take trips, but aunts/uncles have included their children, but my siblings and I have not been included by my father. A first I thought it was just the younger cousins without spouses/kids but this year, the other cousins who are parents are going with entire families.

I gently brought it up with my dad...he should have let me know during planning and we would have gone. Short version is he wants time to spend with his siblings and he would prefer that none of the kids/grandkids were there so that could happen. Told him I understand but it would be nice to see my family.

Don't know how to feel....family is having huge reunion, but leaving out me and my two siblings. Dad is the one behind the exclusion. Don't disagree with his reasons but feel if that it should be uniform across the generation.

Guess my feelings are hurt and I am a little bitter when I see these gorgeous photos on FB saying how amazing the trip is....[/quote]
