Hi, Hope this is the appropriate place, I didn't know where else to go. My fiance (3 years) has suprised me with a week long holiday abroad in june (lucky me) but its not with my (or his) son. Whilst I appreciate his done this to have some couple time and give me a good rest (its been an extremely challenging year) I feel guilty going without my son. My son is 10 (who his arranged to stay with my mum and he has a son 7 who he sees weekends) On the one hand it would be lovely to have some 'me' time but I feel horrendously guilty at the thought of telling my son I'm going away and his not. Should I refuse to go?
I've mentioned I feel I need to know 'the kids are sorted' and mention was made we'd take them for a UK holiday in the school holidays. I took my son away just him and I last year on our first holiday abroad and it was a bit challenging but he enjoyed and I'm worried he would feel he was being left out.
Basically I feel torn - of course son is number one - always has been always will. I lack confidence in feeling as tho i'm making right decisions and I just need to hear from others what would you do if I may ask?
Many thanks in advance x
