[quote=Anonymous]Maybe they just want some variety or to try something new. We used to looooove going to Wildwood NJ but as our kids have aged out of making sandcastles we sometimes look into other things like a weekend in Philly, or Vermont or someplace mountain-y where we can do other activiites and enjoy cooler weather. I would also consider whether they dislike your friends. I would certainly not consider it a vacation if I had to keep my kids on "MIL's friends" level of attire and behavior the whole time. And if your friends are Trumpy or opinionated or insist on keeping the kids quiet, or they smoke or are in any way unpleasant, or stare at your DIL's boobs or tell racist jokes or whatever the problem is, that'll be a no-go. Vacation time is super scarce for most young families and they don't want to spend it doing things that are not enjoyable.[/quote]
