[quote=Anonymous]		You're being cagey, op, and you chose to post. Why do you need alone time which really isn't alone time since your kids and husband will be there to say good-bye with your parents? If you are into preminitions and the like (and I am) then just say "I feel very strongly that they may not come back from this trip". Realize that a self-described two month vacation taken by two adults makes your parents sound indulgent. That's fine, they are allowed to do that, I just can't understand why you would treat your husband and his parents so shabilly. This event (also an event that you are being cagey about) matters to him. More importantly, he wants you and the kids there. And, yet you find it within yourself to say "We're doing this for you, so I want something else for me". That's a real good way to kill a marriage, especially when there is no reason to stay married, i.e. the kids aren't babies anymore, you don't need to prove to the neighbors you can get through the first year, you've had all the children you're likely to have, and both of you are young enough to find other partners. I would level with yourself and tell your husband (and yourself) exactly what your thoughts and feelings are. Then I'd make my peace with my parents before they left. Finally, I'd enjoy my kid's sport, inviting anybody who wants to come, and enjoy a nice weekend with my husband and family where I may see a good side of him I never knew before. Your attitude is why many divorces happen at the middle school age bracket.   [/quote]
