[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op….it’s not ok to plan an extended family vacation and then invite everyone but one family member. That’s just mean. You should have kept it to just your twin and her kids and not mentioned it to anyone else.

I also think it’s odd that you choose to live two hours away from your parents, and your sister lives ten minutes away, but you complain she gets more child care. Well of course she does. She lives ten minutes away.

You all sound like dramatic nightmares, including you.[/quote]

+1 This is what I was thinking. [/quote]

She's not complaining about more child care, she's rightfully complaining about how entitled, unappreciative her sister is and how unequal her parents treat her on the few occasions they do babysit. She's not wrong. But, whatever, we live that too.

Her parents favor the older sister, do not respect boundaries, and the older sister sounds like a complete nightmare.

Frankly, she has every right to plan the trip she wants. And this upcoming one sounds like a nightmare. I'd probably get a sep suite and avoid as much as possible. Next year, plan accordingly. And tell them why in as calm a way as possible. And if they cannot see how toxic they are, then this trip stays with you and your twin. [/quote]
