  • It all depends upon theyre ages, and what you can and cannot do with them if they are little. If her child is older, and you are more cabable of having fun taking the older child on this trip, and can do more things, then it is most likely a best bet to do so, and then plan on taking the smaller children some place else, that the older one cannot go to, more so for theyre own age. If they are close to the same age, then there is no reason for her not to allow the other children to go.
  • New wife? I'd ditch ALL of the kids. If she still wants to honor her promise to her son, she can take him when he's 17 or 18 and would enjoy it better, anyway.
  • Agree to take a nanny along to take care of the children.
  • Why does she only want to take only one of your children? I suppose it depends on their ages. If they're young, it could be sort of educational, and getting them out to places helps develop them more - in what way, I don't know but others say it's good for kids to get away for a while. If they're older then they might enjoy the scenery and the things offered to them elsewhere. Also, it depends if you're children even want to go away.
  • If all the kids live with you, then I think if any of the kids go, then all the kids should go. Obviously life has changed with the marriage and if she's going to keep old promises, then she needs to make compromises for the new situation. I would suggest either her and her son go alone or all of you go as a family. Leaving one kid out seems so unfair.
