Should I drag my SS
Hi
Wow, It has been a long time since I have blogged on here. Need little advice.
My DH cannot go on vacation with us because he was not able to get vacation time. Our plan was to visit my family up north and do the entire NYC family vacation thing, plus see my folks.
Now DH is not going. I'm sure that he is pleased to be home alone 
Ok that is fine. Now my SS14 has told me on more then several occasions that he does not want to go. I always try and keep us together and be a unified family. As much as I possibly can.
Now DH is not going, Im going to be dragging another teenager around. My family does not really care if he comes or not. If he did come he would be smothered with attention just as my kids are. That is just the way they are.
Im wondering if my ss14 is testing me to really see, if I make him go, or if I dont, will he think I dont care enough. I have always told him he is a part of this family, no matter what
Should I drag a 14year old around under protest or just let him stay home.
Also he is ours for that vacation time, so he will be going to a camp or hanging out at his Aunts house, if he stays home
MY DH told me I can make him go, or he can stay home.
Should I drag him with us? I guess the bottom line is, I really dont want to and feel guilty

If you force him he will likely mope your vacation down the tube
Put him in a community service camp and let him work his tail bone off while you and your BioKids have a nice vacation.
Just my thoughts of course.

I'd go without him
He said he didn't want a go. Give him a hug, tell him you'll miss him and maybe he would like to go next time? And then go and have a good time!

I wouldn't force him to go.
If your DH is staying home I wouldn't even force your Bio kids to go...........if someone doesn't want to so be it. It'll just be that much more relaxing for you!
I would just sit him down and tell him that you want him to come (if you truley do) and you hope he'll change his mind. But if staying at home is what he truley wants then you'll understand that to.
Give him a big hug, and a big kiss, and go on your vacation!!

Nothing for you to feel guilty about.
Go on your holiday and enjoy. All you can do is offer if he wants to come but there is certainly nothing for you to feel guilty about.
Nope let him stay home!
He has already said he doesn't want to go! So why MAKE him? he will be miserable and you will be too. Don't feel guilty go pack and have fun with your family!
