[quote=Anonymous]Just deflect and ignore. If you can, include her sometimes. My parents are the same way - well my mom is. They didn’t grow up going on ANY vacations. My mom’s family would go camping an hour from home sometimes. I grew up going on vacation once every 2 years and even then it was usually to visit family. We go on several vacations a year and every trip elicits whining and pouting from my mom about how she doesn’t go anywhere or do anything. There is nothing stopping her from going on vacations except planning one. I used to feel guilty not bringing her along with us, but that is my time with MY kids. I am enjoying these years where my kids like hanging out with me and are old enough to do things like kayak and go one strenuous hikes. [/quote]
