AIBU not wanting to take stepchild on last minute holiday?

Have just decided last minute I want to go on holiday for child’s 1st birthday just to a caravan park due to money being on the low side (I could do with the break more than anyone). I feel awful but I don’t want ss to come which I know last minute mil is going to suggest we do. SS is 9 and at the best of times very difficult to deal with, throws a tantrum when they don’t get what they want, demands absolutely everything, swears( which makes me so uncomfortable) and sometimes back chats or just becomes very rude towards me when I’ve asked him something. I really want just a calm easy holiday and I know it won’t be that if he comes. He’s going on holiday abroad for his birthday next month with his mother so it’s not like he never goes on holiday and he went with his dad twice last year whilst I was pregnant.

Hi all,

We've removed quite a few posts from this thread. Can we ask that you please bear in mind that there's a real person on the other side of the screen? It's fine to disagree with the OP or to point out concerns about a situation, but there's a difference between offering honest advice and piling on with personal attacks.

We absolutely don’t mind plain-speaking or straightforward advice on Mumsnet - one of the brilliant things about the site is the opportunity to get a range of honest opinions from neutral observers. But posts which seem intentionally aggressive or designed to belittle are a different matter - that's not what Mumsnet's about at all.

Please keep the focus on making your points in a civil, constructive way.
Thanks.
