[quote=Anonymous]If you feel that your mom's summer cottage must get used by your family then you should go with your DD. Don't expect a 9 year old to do something that you wouldn't be willing to do. It may not be any nefarious and it may simply be that she gets homesick. You are likely to make this worse if you force her because then she'll get fixed on how sad she is there. Some kids, especially at this age, do have issues with homesickness. It could even be benign that she doesn't enjoy that much grandma and step-grandpa time which should be respected too. Kids are not toys. Your DD's comfort is not more important than your mother's wants about her summer cottage. In our house relatives are not entitled to our kids for their own wants. [/quote]
