[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP. Is there any wiggle room allowed for me here? Am I allowed to be upset that I have to go straight from daily phone calls to no contact at all for 2 weeks? That's a drastic change from what I'm used to and I just wish there was some middle ground for compromise. I wish that DILs on here remember that yes they are married and the wife should definitely be the most important woman in her husband's life but his mother doesn't go out the window just because he is married. My feelings still matter too. [/quote]

It's reasonable for your son and his wife to take a vacation and not be in touch during that time. When I saw this post, I thought perhaps you were caring for their young child during the vacation and they were going to be unreachable- that would be unreasonable, but wanting to have time away from our phones is reasonable and healthy. If this issue continues to bother yo, maybe you could talk to a therapist for a few sessions-your son is his own person and, fair or unfair, sometimes he is going to make choices that aren't what you want or that you don't agree with, you need to find some ways to cope and accept if you want to have a good relationship with him.[/quote]
