So one of my DC is exhibiting very challenging behaviour. It is their birthday soon and we had planned family trip out to celebrate. A couple of days ago I was at my wits end and said that if the behaviour continued I would cancel some of the birthday plan.
As I should have anticipated it has continued and this morning I told DC that the trip was cancelled. DC thinks I will change my mind but the others are pretty sure I won't and are upset. They were looking forward to the trip too and are cross.
So - WIBU to have done this? Should I relent?
I don't want to seem to be a pushover but it would have been a nice thing to do. (although I am happy not to have to spend the money!)
NB logistics mean that it is impossible for DC to be left out of the trip. If we go we all have to go.
