[quote=Anonymous]We have done long weekend trips away with my family (getting ready to do one with DH's family) and it's been awesome. I feel like we leave before we're at each other's throats. Even DH claimed he had a great time! Maybe a shorter trip somewhere would be ideal. Less commitment, less risk of losing a whole week to a crappy family vacation. Then, if it goes well, maybe they'd be happy to do something else longer in the future. But I get it. I keep mentioning it to my dad, someone with whom I have been working to establish a closer connection (I grew up 800 miles from him...his choice). He is my only surviving parent. He's just not into it. When they visit, it's only ever for a long weekend. Makes me sad, but what can I do? I want him to have a great relationship with his grandson (I ADORED my grandparents growing up and saw them often), but it just doesn't seem to be in the cards.[/quote]
