Holiday advice needed

[wirral]

My ex is due to have our daughter for the first half of the Whit holiday (Fri to Wed). As it's a bank holiday and all my friends seem to be going away I thought that I would use this time to go on holiday to see my parents who are abroad at the moment. When I told my daughter she was really upset as she wants to come to see her grandparents with me. Dad wont allow it. I've offered to swap the days but he wont as he has booked a holiday. My poor daughter is so upset. What do you think?

Should I cancel holiday?
Should I make daughter go?

I really do have great difficulty at the moment. Whilst I think that daughter enjoys spending time with her Dad but she really misses being with me and my family.

wirral your daughter was quite happy to go with her dad until you said that whilst she is gone you will be going abroad to see your parents, dont forget children are very clever and will always want the better treat, I think you should tell her she is going with her dad and watch her go skipping off with him as soon as she is in his company.
