Dear Queenie,
My husband is planning to take his grown-up children with us on a trip off-island later this year, but he won’t consider taking my also grown-up children too.
Queenie, is this fair?—Annoyed wife
Dear Wife,
Is your husband thinking about the cost or the number of people involved? You cannot expect him to pay more than he can afford.
If it is the cost, and if you have money of your own, perhaps he would relent if you offer to pay for your children.
If it is the size of the group, perhaps your children could be included another time in another trip.
