I have a holiday coming up in 2 days with my now-ex and 2 children. Eldest is not his. Youngest is a baby so doesn't know any different. It's not amicable between us, he's nasty hence the reason for the breakup (recent) and I just don't want to be around him. I'm happy to miss out on the holiday, but my dd would be devasted.

Yabu - suck it up for your daughters sake, its only for 4 days

Yanbu - don't go, it's not worth it

Say to dd that you’re feeling a bit poorly and will be nice for her to have alone time with daddy

job done

Except that he’s not “daddy”.

This sounds like it would be nothing short of awful for your daughter too op

How old is dd? What is the plan going forward for contact between her and your ex?

Don’t go. It will be horrible and totally not worth it.

Don't go, take her somewhere else maybe if you can
