@saved1970 My BIL is having a destination wedding in Mexico (in July
) and the four of us (twins are 3.5 yrs) are invited. I opted to stay home with my kids for the following reasons:
My son doesnāt walk yet (Cerebral Palsy). Accessibility is our absolute main concern when it comes to travel. He bum scoots pretty fast but he would be in his stroller most of the time, and he hates his stroller.
Itāll be hot as fuck.
My husband is best man and my in laws will be busy with wedding stuff. Iām the default parent, but handling them in a hot ass foreign country sounds like a nightmare to me.
My in laws tried to talk us into all travelling together, but I had to put my foot down. My husband is going and, as guilty as he feels, I told him that taking time away for himself without us is healthy. Maybe thatās an option for your partner? My husband and I made an agreement that he would go to Mexico alone and I would visit my brother in Germany for a week for his 40th bday.
Youāre right to say no. People will be pissed, sad, disappointed but in reality thatās not your concern. You do what you feel is right for you.
