[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have a tween and teen, how exactly are you expecting them to be supervised at a water park? Or are you just concerned you teen son will be made to supervise his toddler cousin? At a place like GWL, we have our tweens check in with us every 45 minutes or so, but we are not doing every slide with them. I’m a little confused about what the safety issue is for your kids, since yours are a tween and teen.[/quote]

It’s not GWL it’s a bigger park.  I worry that my 15 will be left alone in the park with 5 kids 12 and under including a 1 year old, a situation that I consider pretty stressful.  [/quote]

So tell grandma no? It sounds like too much for her to take 5 kids on her own or with just another adult. And if she's there why is the 15 year old alone? Wouldn't he just go off and do his own thing? I would assume the teen and tweens would run around together nobody is following around big kids at a water park. Only a 1 year old needs to be watched constantly. [/quote]

So, you'd let a 2 year old run around a place like Water Country USA?  To say that only 1 year olds need to be watched at water parks is a little bizarre.  [/quote]

In this situation the 1 year old. Sheesh. The 12 and 15 year olds are fine. OP never said how old the other kid was. So temper your rage weirdo.[/quote]

BIL has 2 kids between the 1 and 12 year old who are young enough to need eyes on supervision at the water park. No, I haven't said their ages, because I feel like listing the ages is just one more identifying thing.  [/quote]

Why do you think grandma is incapable of watching these 2 kids at the waterpark? The older kids will be self sufficient and doing totally different activities most of the day. [/quote]

It’s 3 kids if the BIL bails as he has apparently done before.  Or more likely he tells op’s kids to watch his kids for him which he has also done.  Why does  bil need to be protected from the consequences/truth of his own behavior from his mommy?  All this ‘dipomacy’ is just enabling his behavior, (and no one does this for bad moms btw.)  Op doesn’t want to put her kids in that situation with him and she told mil why.  [/quote]
