Today, we’re back with another intriguing post from the AITA (Am I The A**hole) thread on Reddit, which often sparks diverse opinions and lively discussions. It’s a great place to seek unbiased feedback or advice on personal situations.
In this case, the post comes from a woman who is upset that her in-laws took their other grandchildren to Disney for a vacation but didn’t invite her kids. Feeling excluded, she’s now considering taking her own children on a vacation for Christmas as a way to make up for it.
She obviously feels like her kids are left out and just ultimately like they’re not getting treated the same, which would upset anyone. So she’s looking to see if she’s in the wrong for kind of just doing her own thing on Christmas since they decided to leave her out of the Thanksgiving trip.
So if you’re interested in hearing the full story and seeing all of the comments that were left on the original post, then keep on reading as we dive in and share with you all of the different comments and the full post that was left on it.

So many people did think that this was okay for her to do and told her just to make her own traditions if she was not being included in the family tradition.

Yes we have to agree that OP needs to really talk to the husband and the in-laws to see maybe why they did this or what their thought process was behind making the decision not to include them.

It is pretty clear that everyone told OP that she was NTA here and that her in-laws definitely are in the wrong for leaving them out.

We do agree though that the kids will definitely pick up on this because many of us remember feeling this way as a kid, and we were pretty young as well.

We all agree that taking her kids on a Christmas vacation might be the way to go now since they weren’t on the same page about Thanksgiving.

Kids definitely do know when they aren’t wanted and they can feel these feelings very prominently as a child and they understand them also for the most part.
