[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It honestly sounds like the mask issue on the plane is not the problem but that he’s difficult to take care of in general and you don’t really want to bring him. If you really need a break, leave him but have 1-2 back ups back home in case something goes wrong with the nanny. Sometimes parents of special needs kids need a break and that’s OK. I would strongly suggest celebrating Christmas early or when you get back. It could be emotionally damaging for your 5 year old to see his little brother abandoned on Christmas. The two year old won’t understand but the five year old will. [/quote] +1. Social worker turned banker here. I’ve worked with developmentally delayed kids and they tend to know a lot more than you think. All of you on the trip may feel relief, but you will also feel guilt and abandonment. [/quote]
