[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get why the kids wants a trip with just grandpa, I think you should respect that.

What I would say:

“Ok but you won’t be able to do the 3 activities that are so rigorous that gpa won’t be able to keep up. If I come along I can accompany you on them and do my own thing sometimes so you and gpa have alone time. What do you think?”

And then he knows gpa can’t do all the things he wants to and to stick to museums and such. Or he has you come along and you do your own thing sometimes (this is something I would love! A few days in nyc to browse bookshops and stroll in Central Park, etc).

Terrible advice. No need to threaten your son and insult your dad. Personally, I would have immediately told my dad thanks, no thanks to my dad and assure him he’d be fine with DS. I wouldn’t have mentioned to DS at all.

It probably has nothing to do with you. One of my boys would hang with me at that age, one wouldn’t. My BFFs son didn’t talk to her from 15-18 and now they’re taking two mini solo vacations together now that he’s late 20s.

Use the week to treat yourself! It will all work out. [/quote]
