[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be very direct. “We are going on a vacation this year, just the four of us.” Then without getting into details, change the subject. I would not be willing to lie, and say things like we don’t know yet when we do, and if they threw a fit, I would just hang up and ignore any tantrums. If you truly think they will book a flight and join you at your destination, refuse to tell them where you are going, but that seems unlikely.[/quote] Yes this. You should have done this when they initially started asking honestly, but since you haven’t told them already the best time to tell them is now. Keep the details to a minimum if you need be, you can just say “oh we are going to France with just the four of us this year in July”. No need to give them exact dates and all that.[/quote]
