[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s bad that the reason you don’t want to go is because “it’s boring” for your kids. What’s wrong with them? Can’t you teach them to find joy in spending time with family, even if it doesn’t look like child chaos? My only DS still spends a week every summer (and many other one off days) with his 80 year old grandparents and they have an awesome time together - it looks different than at home, but it’s so much fun: he and grandad watch nerd stuff for hours that no one else ever wants to watch, he and grandma do lots of jigsaw puzzles and talk so much. They go for a walk to the coffee shop and he gets a big donut every morning, I dunno it’s really wonderful memories for him. What messaging are you sending to your kids that spending 36 hours with their grandparents is boring? [/quote]
