[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids do not want to go and they’ve already spent two weeks this summer with grandparents. It’s not a petty reason to say no and saying no is not mean. If grandparents were so fabulous then the kids would want to go.

Tweens have their own opinions and I wouldn’t force them to give up their last week of summer either. [/quote]

Give up their last week of summer to do WHAT exactly?  Nobody will answer that question.  [/quote]

My kids always asked to do nothing the week before school starting in upper elementary school. Our summers were always busy with traveling and the various camps they chose. My kids just wanted the previous week to hang around with the dog, play with their own toys, ride bikes with friends, go to the pool, build legos, watch TV.

It’s not comfortable staying at someone else’s house for a week, not having your stuff, not being able to do stuff with friends etc.

You should respect your kids’ wishes when deciding to accept an invitation. [/quote]
