[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if they hadn't said it was a gift or a treat, but just said, "We would really like to celebrate our retirement/birthday as a family? It would mean so much if you came?" Would you be fine with it then? if so just try to think of it in these terms even if it isn't what they said. You might end up loving the vacation even if it wasn't your pick originally.[/quote] +1. I said this in one of the earlier responses. And it isn't to be dismissive that OP is annoyed. It can be annoying. But it is just well-intentioned advice on how to possibly change your mindset so that you are less annoyed...[/quote]
