Ok background.

I work, dp works but he is a teacher. So he is off for two week over Easter, I have yet to request any leave.

every holiday I sort out what will happen. Quite often I take the kids away to see family up north for a few days, on my own, to ensure that dp gets a break (I don't think it's fair for him to spend all his holiday looking after the kids).

I am having a bad time at work and thought that it might be an idea if dp took the kids to see his parents for a couple of days for a change. Kids and his parents would love it. DP would endure it. He's now in a sulk.

AIBU? I would quite like a couple of days to myself. Also he hasn't initiated one conversation about the easter hols - for all he knows I am planning to work throughout.

I'd just like him to take reponsibility for once for seeing his family without me being invlved (I quite often visit his family when I am visiting mine as they live in the same area).
