[quote=Anonymous]If you don’t want to pull the plug entirely, I’d insist on staying in separate accommodations and then just hanging out there during the day and/or meeting for dinner etc.

We stopped doing any uncomfortable bed/accomodation situations once we had kids. No sleeping on sofas or sofa beds, air mattresses, other weird situations or not enough bathrooms…..just no. I won’t do it for any reason. We work hard, parenting is tiring, travel with kids is even more so, and I am not spending my vacation time being uncomfortable.

It may upset your mom but (if you don’t want to scrap the trip entirely)- I’d tell her it will be separate accommodations or you are not coming. If the kids are old enough and you trust your parents, the kids could sleep over a night or two if that would please her….if she is craving the whole “waking up together and making pancakes for the kids” type of scenario.

Maybe the house or location can be changed in coming years to something that works out better (and maybe you not coming, or staying separately will help to create that change)
