[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 408482"] Yes we did and we had a wonderful time. Last summer we planned a trip to Hawaii for the 4 of us... we were not sure we would end up taking our son so we got travel insurance for him. We ended up kicking him out of the house in June... our trip was planned for August.. We thought we would give him a bit of time to see how he did before we cancelled his piece. By July he had been arrested a couple of time and I could not imagine being in Hawaii and having him get arrested there, then where would be so we told him that given the state of our relationship he could not come with us. That we would love to take him on vacation when things were different. By the time August rolled around he started trying to get his life together and so actually went back to the TBS for the couple of weeks we were in Hawaii and did the work he needed to do to finish his high school diploma. Which made it wonderful for us because then not only was he not with us but I knew he was safe while we were gone. Did I feel guilty... to be honest not really. It was a great trip for us and our daughter. We all needed the time to relax etc. I felt he got himself there. So I totally support you in not taking your daughter. You need a vacation where you get to relax and enjoy yourself.... and you don't need it to be miserable..... I actually wondered when you mentioned the cruise if you and I were on the same cruise.... we took our son on one and he was out all night every night, have no idea what he was doing!! So we too had had a couple of vacations made miserable by him and that is just not worth the time or the money. [/QUOTE]
