[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not one plane ticket. It’s food out and bigger Ubers and bigger accommodations and additional excursions costs……. Just like you women where don’t want to see your MIL all the time or have her include herself in your family events all the time, we want to spend time with our family/our kids without you as well especially if you are expecting me to pay for your full ride while pushing me out of my sons life. [/quote]

With that attitude, no doubt your son and his future partner will not want you in their life.  Loving parents want to see their kids with their spouses/partners/Significant others, especially on vacation.  Only reason a parent should expect to see just their kid (once a partner is involved) is if it's a guys event or a girls only event (ie: dad and son are going to a sporting event just the 2 of them).   But if it's both parents, then you invite the couple, not just your kid.

Keep that attitude up and you won't be seeing much of your grandkids either in the future. [/quote]

Wait, so if I am a 40yo female who routinely goes out to dinner with just my dad about every other month, is that wrong?[/quote]
