[quote=Anonymous]We are opposite. We are under my MIL's thumb. It took us years to have a real traveling vacation that didn't involve a pit stop with family between funerals and weddings and reunions. We don't get 5 weeks off per year, so I grew resentful. If we said we couldn't afford to go visit X family, she would offer to pay for hotels, airfare, etc. We finally had to book ahead of time and say, no thanks. We flew to the beach and had a wonderful, family free time. In your situation, I think a great compromise would be to stop one of your two visits and instead, book a big family trip. You could rent a house on the beach or a cabin in the mountains. Your carribean family can plan ahead and instead go there 4x and meet you for their 5th trip. Other family can be brought in on it too. Just spark the conversation and see. [/quote]
