[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We always build in 2-3 hours a day of downtime even on active vacations, but the window of time in which it takes place is scheduled around the day’s activities, not the other way around.  It’s totally reasonable to want some quiet relaxation time on VACATION (especially with kids old enough to entertain themselves) but too rigid insist it occur from exactly 2-4PM every day.[/quote]

YES exactly this. Having to come back to the hotel at a set time each day interferes with a lot of fun activities you might do. When you have a toddler, that's just reality. With an adult, it feels very selfish and self-indulgent.[/quote]

+1 I think everyone twisting themselves into knots to defend this dad is doing the typical “why can’t you just all accommodate the most difficult person” dance that selfish people love. Yes there is a way to make the top priority for every vacation dads naps but if everyone else demanded a chunk of the day like there wouldn’t be any family time. It’s the difference between making a demand and expecting people to accommodate it and having a reasonable request considered along with everyone else’s preferences.[/quote]
