[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are offering to pay. They are willing to include you. That's nice.

Do you get that not everyone adores the beach each and every year? After about two days of nonstop bugs and sand everywhere, I'm over it. I think a mountain resort sounds lovely. People like a change of pace. Not everyone like We Do This Tradition Every Year.[/quote]

I love the beach, but my redheaded children hate it because of the sun.  Not everyone likes the same thing.

OP, your son and DIL are handling this very well and you should respond in kind, as a fellow adult.  Also, FYI:  You are not in charge.  You are on equal footing with your adult children.[/quote]

This. I also love the beach and we go every year. But I think you need to appreciate how this went versus how it could have gone. They could have said, "We have limited vacation and cannot do both the beach trip and a mountain trip our family wants to take. We have decide next year, the 4 of us are going to do X so we will have to miss your breach trip. Have fun! We will send you a postcard!"

You have options here. [/quote]
