[quote=Anonymous]You literally just spent a week with them at a beach house! While this may have been fantastic for you, it may have been the 7 th circle of hell for your adult kids.

We refuse to do a beach week or any vacation anymore where MIL has any control over our accommodations. She’ll be in a big comfy room with an en suite, sitting room and king sized bed. Her adult children and their children will be in tiny rooms with futons, air mattresses, bunk beds and expect the young children to sleep in sleeping bags on the floor. She will squeal piggishly about how fun it is for kids to camp inside on vacation. She pats herself on the back for hosting such a fantastic and delightful vacation. The only draw to this nightmare was time with siblings and cousins getting to play together.

OP you need to learn to read the room! You let them off the hook for your obligatory Thanksgiving and they ran with relief in multiple directions. Perhaps you should be more aware that you are creating visits which are obli-cations not vacations.[/quote]
