Ahh. Im at a loss. My in-laws go cruising every summer x 1 week. Next years is getting booked we cant afford to go. We have younger child age 3 aswell. We will just do local holidays like always. They are practically begging to take DD who will be 9 and has never been abroad.
HOWEVER, due to family dynamics. DH tricky relationship with his mother he wont allow her to go. Its more dear FIL is looking to bring her.
Im on the fence. Im nervous as shes never been before so dont know. Her grandfather will look after her very well and there are other people going who she will know, not very well but friends of the family and kids similar ages.
I dont fully trust MIL to watch her and FIL would know this but i dont see how he can never leave her side for a full week.
FIL often provides childcare, MIL not so much. Would he known for being a bit unhinged.
Basically AIBU to not send her? I feel like she would love it and i dont want my anxieties to.hold her back but am i doing her a disservice as her mother knowing that MIL will be enivitably watching her some of the time and the fact that I dont even trust her at home alone woth the kids.
Sorry for the speel
