I share one DD (2) with DH who also has older (8) DSS with his ex.
We have DSS every weekend Thursday from school until until Sunday.
My parents are very close with DD and we like to see them quite often but as they work this can often only happen on the weekends because of this 99% of the time DH will want to come along with DSS and I feel like I never really get to spend time my parents with just DD.
They have asked if me, DD and my grandparents (who live a while away but are staying with them) can go out today.
WIBU to tell DH that I want to go with DD by myself today and is there anyway of saying that without sounding horrible?
My grandparents don't get to see DD often and I'd just like her to be the focus today. My parents would as well but they'd never outwardly say it to DH as they are too polite.
My DSS is a lovely boy but he is very full on and can misbehave a lot especially when we are out. He ends up with 99% of the attention whenever we go anywhere. I just don't want to deal with it today. In addition, he also has a hobby training today which means we couldn't go anywhere until after lunchtime.
