DP and I agreed to buy each other a weekend away for Xmas, rather than presents. My weekend to him is a 4 day break to Iceland. We go in March.
The weekend is working out to be v.expensive and since we have booked our finances have changed somewhat and we'll be holidaying in the U.K. for our main family holiday, not abroad.
In light of this, I want to take my son with us to Iceland. DS is 9 and if he doesn't come then he won't get a trip abroad this year. I think it will be a fantastic experience for him, and it's not somewhere we will be returning to once we've been, so no opportunity to take him on a future trip.
DP (not DS's dad) is less keen on the idea. He feels that these weekends were supposed to be time for us as a couple, and that IABU for now wanting to bring DS. This culminated in a slightly drunk bicker last night.
If it's relevant, it would also mean DS missing 2 days of school.
AIBU to push the idea of bringing my son along too?
