I'm a lone parent to DD aged 3 and we're away on our little holiday. Just to a chalet in the UK for a few nights. Whenever I have mentioned it to friends, colleagues and family members they tend to ask, just you and DD? Then seem a bit taken aback when I say it is. I'm definitely not imagining it because of a chip on my shoulder about being a single mum or anything, I hadn't even considered it was strange in any way until people started having these reactions. One of my close friends (who is also a single parent!) suggested we go away together with our kids instead. I said we could maybe look to get a cheap caravan deal later in summer but I'd like this one to be just me and DD. She asked why and I said it's our family holiday. Surely that should be obvious though! AIBU to think it's completely normal to take my daughter on holiday on my own and be confused by the reactions?
