[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think PPs recommendations are fair except - would you be on the hook for your family's share of the 4 course meal that you have to rush through in 20 minutes before you kid can make a peep? I would not pay hundreds of dollars to rush through a meal just to appease my in-laws. If DH wants to go, fine but I'm ordering a pizza and hanging out with my kids where we an all relax. I love my one on one nights with DD. [/quote] Why bother to go for just 20 minutes while the kid wolfs down the food and OP gets nothing to eat? OP, I would just have your husband go alone, you and ds hang out at the hotel and get room service. DH can just explain that your son can't sit still for that long. So what if your relatives don't get it? At this point, skipping out on one fancy meal isn't going to make or break their perception of you. [/quote]
