[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent I would love for my kids and their spouses to be close enough to vacation together regardless of whether I come along. It just wouldn’t enter my radar to have an issue with this.[/quote]

I get that too as a parent, but I think part of the issue is the daughter repeatedly declines a vacation that the parents offer, and then intentionally leaves them out to do a similar type of vacation. I can see how that's hurtful to the parents. It means they are constantly excluded from any vacation with their daughter rather than sometimes the daughter/son do a vacation with their parents, sometimes without.[/quote]

The daughter isn’t vacationing with the parents and the parents already know it. That’s their own issue to resolve with SIL that have nothing to do with OP, her husband or the relationship they have with the siblings, which any parent should want to nurture. To hold a grudge because siblings still want to get together is IMO controlling.[/quote]
