[quote=Anonymous]I agree it is possible she is willing to pay, but you know your mom. I’d suggest you consider whether you’d be willing to go if she were paying. If not, you should tell her that you can’t do a cruise at this stage in your lives but ... and insert some other ideas not for trips but for something special for her birthday. If you are willing to go if she’s paying, then ask. Say that you want to go but the cost is prohibitive and see what she says. My fathers wanted to take my family on a cruise with him and honestly it wasn’t a vacation I wanted to take. I was honest that I didn’t like big cruise ships because I was an introvert and asked if we could do something else together. I’ve really been enjoying meeting up with him for things we both enjoy and visiting him at his vacation home. We are all happy. But my dad is reasonable, so I don’t expect this would always end well. Good luck OP. [/quote]
