I know this is good for everyone and yet here I am on night #1 being that pathetic mom that just wishes I was home with my kids. What has happened to me?! I used to have an exciting adventurous life and so judge women like me! And i'm judging myself for feeling this way - its not healthy! So give me all the great reasons that this trip is a great thing for everyone!
Why is it "good for everyone" for a 6 month old to be away from his mother for several days?
Not OP, but I am guessing that it’s good for dad to have some time on his own with the kids, good for grandparents to come out, good for OP to see her girlfriends, good for kids to be sited on for a few days, etc.
