I am so angry at my parents right now. They just called to wish my husband a happy birthday today and also wanted to talk to me.
During the conversation they said that I should send one or both of my kids over to Germany to stay with my parents for a couple of weeks. Mind you, my kids are only almost 7 and 10 years old and it is a 20 hour flight to a country where they don't even speak the language.
So I said to my parents that I didn't want to send my young kids by themselves on a 20+ hour flight! So all hell broke loose, I was accused of being selfish and that I would deny my kids their heritage. Essentially they were trying to blackmail me that if I didn't send the boys over, they would never come to visit us again.
Am I the one who is being selfish here? What am I missing?
Sorry I am venting here, but I am just about ready to explode!!
