[quote=Anonymous]The problem here is that they proposed a trip to the kid before clearing it with you first. The fact that it was your special place is not important -- they're not stealing it from you they're just trying to share it with your kid. If/when they approach you about this trip, you can tell them that you have a plan already for his first trip to Amazing Island, and you'd love for him to have a special vacation with just them, but that 1) you don't want it to be more than [x] miles away and [x] days long because he's so young (also no water if you feel strongly about that), and 2) in the future you'd prefer to make sure schedules work and the trip is feasible on your end before it's mentioned to him, because you don't want his feelings hurt by an avoidable problem.[/quote]
