[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"why vacation without the kids?" said no parent of multiple kids... ever[/quote] +1. I spend 51 weeks per year with my kids. It's ok if I want to spend 1 week per year without them.[/quote] But how many weeks vacation do you get? The question is why are you okay with spending 1/2 1/3 or 1/4 of your vacation time away from your kids?[/quote] I get 3 weeks of vacation. I'm ok with it because I enjoy time alone with my husband and my children have fun at their grandparents. [/quote] Yeah for us it’s a dual benefit- we get a bit of time on our own AND the kids get some quality time with their grandparents. Both sets of my grandparents were local when I grew up and I spent so much time with them, often without my parents around. Both my parents and ILs live in a different state than us so my kids just don’t get that on a regular basis. They have a blast when they get a long weekend with them.[/quote]
