it’s really your family duties to just suck it up.


This is exactly how you end up on the Money board asking about Social Security payouts to avoid eating cat food when you're 61.

It's not your job to lay back and take what everyone else asks you to do, blood or not. None of them will be there for you when it comes time to write a check to the IRS.

Both parents are supposed to serve as a counterbalance to each other. Be a pushover, see how that turns out in five years.

You should have said that your in-laws want you to join them on a Disney cruise with the kids.

Unless they are paying for everyone or at least the kid's fare it doesn't sound like they are taking anybody anywhere.

Where did OP say he couldn't afford it? If anything he said he it was expensive, which they are. If he said he couldn't afford it then I'd agree with you.

Chances are that the OP's wife enjoys it and its her parents, its their kids grandparents.

If OP doesn't want to go, I wouldn't have an issue with that.

Or, maybe the OP should suggest the grandparents take the grandchildren on their own and OP and the wife stay home.

This is akin to going to family for the Holidays. I understand it not being what everyone wants to do and sometimes its nice to stay home and be quiet.
