[quote=Anonymous]I actually think you sending him without you one year could solve a lot of this. I would happily miss one TG with my kids to help my husband understand how much work this whole thing is for you. And I would not be a jerk to him about it. I would just say “listen, I totally get that these trips feel like a vacation for you, but they don’t for me. I think this year, I just want to have our whole house to myself while you take the kids. You guys will have a great time. And I will get some solo time to decompress.” And then, see how the trip goes for him. Maybe he will have the time of his life and maybe you will realize that you could do less on these trips by heading him describe how he handled it. Maybe he will realize it is a pain in the butt. Who knows? But you might both learn a lot from it.[/quote]
