So my family has been going to the same beach house every summer since we were kids. It’s nice enough. My parents and dad take the main bedroom, and my sisters (21f and 23f) and me (25m) each have our own rooms.
Well this year my dad invited our grandma to come with us (didn’t consult the family before doing so). She’s had some health issues lately so he’s trying to spend more time with her, which I totally get. But here’s the problem.
He wants to put her in my bedroom. I have always stayed in the guest house (right off the main house) since I don’t get along with my sisters and need space. My dad thinks his mom should have my room since it’s the only one that has a private bathroom. That means I need to sleep on the pull out couch in the living room, which offers 0 privacy and is uncomfortable.
Obviously I have a huge issue with this. My parents told me to speak to my sisters about figuring out an arrangement that seems fair to all of us since “we’re all adults.” But my sisters are total brats and will not agree to give up their rooms.
My suggestions were that either they put my grandma on the couch since she probably doesn’t care and will be happy just to be invited to our family vacation. Or that my parents give up their bedroom since they were the ones who invited her and not me. When I told my dad this, he told me that since he pays for the trips, he makes the rules, and if I don’t like it, I should go on my own vacation. I’m unable to work due to anxiety issues and he knows I can’t afford to pay for my own vacation. I told him that and he said “well you don’t have to go then!” I found that very disrespectful since I think everyone deserves to have a vacation! I’ve had a hard year too due to mental health issues and I’ve been looking forward to this.
So I’m hoping you all can help. AITA?
What is OP needing a vacation from? Not work. I’d take the time to be home with nobody around. THAT sounds like a fantastic vacation.
