[quote=Anonymous]I posted in your other thread that I don’t enjoy vacationing with my kids.

For more context, our kids attend schools with different spring break weeks, so for those we split kids so one goes with dad somewhere their week off and one goes with mom. We try to swap parents, but that is entirely dependent on the activity. One of our kids loves to camp which takes my dislike of family vacations to levels I can’t even describe. But my husband was an Eagle Scout so he’s all over that. One of our kids loves broadway shows and my husband’s idea of hell would be going to NYC for a week and seeing several shows, whereas I love that.

We also have 3 sets of long distance grandparents who all also live far from each other, so we have to make the time for that every year so there are definitely years where no one goes anywhere other to visit grandparents. Both kids also go to 4 weeks of sleep away camp, further limiting when we can travel. There’s also the issue of vacation time, my husband only has 12 days of leave a year so he almost never comes to my parents and I rarely go to his since until recently I covered every single day school was closed outside of spring break which ate up my leave.
