Going on holiday without the kids

[whatisay]

I have been invited on a week long girls holiday next year in June. By then I will have a 3.5 year old and a 10 month old. I do want to go however I am not sure how comfortable I will be about being away from them. (10 hour flight away). I work nights and spend at least 2 days away from ds which I can cope with.
Am I worrying over nothing and should just go, or is it wrong to go away for a long time and so far away?

It’s not a question of whether it’s wrong to leave them, of course it’s not if they’re being well looked after (by their other parent?). What matters is whether or not you’re comfortable leaving them. And you do need to think about practicalities if you might still be breast feeding the younger one. Personally I’d do it, DH does the odd business trip away that’s a week long so I have no guilt about a holiday of equal length! However, it would be perfectly ok to decline if you don’t feel comfortable that with that long and that far away.
