[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't know why everyone is giving you grief.  I thought the first plan was great.  The sibling that is pushing for everyone to be together in one big house now is the one trying to change it up but not accepting any plan but their own.  You have shown a willingness to to adapt (going to a hotel).  Is the sibling worried that this is the last Christmas with both parents? What did they say when you all got together to create the original plan?

When we put together the original plan, they seemed fine with it.  They were as active as I was in planning it. I think they really were fine with it, and then went home and their kids were like "wait we want to be with the cousins".

I don't think they're worried this is the last Christmas with their parents, I think they may be worried that it's the last Christmas with DH, and of course I'm worried about that too.  But that's a reason for him to get to spend it with his own children.  The idea that my husband could spend his last Christmas at a hotel without his kids is kind of heartbreaking to me.  I'm sort of amazed that DCUM thinks it's a reasonable solution.  [/quote]

I didn’t realize it was such a dire situation. I don’t have any advice because I don’t think there’s a perfect situation. If this could be his last Christmas I don’t think spending it in a hotel is the right thing to do either.[/quote]
