>>809947I feel so-so about this I had planned on doing as much as I can, but I have physical limits (as I mentioned mobility impairing disability)
I'd probably be able to handle one or two of the kids, but not 4. Particularity when tantrums/bickering starts ( this is why my wife and I aren't having kids we like our lives uncomplicated) any kind of pulling up will end up causing arguments amongst the adults- kids go and play in river, get told to be careful/stop drowning sister, start to cry, adults rage about others disciplining their kids. cant see that it's their fault because their kids were unsupervised ect this is the shit I'm up against.
The mother in law is a funny one ... my farther in law passed on last Autumn and she's finding the house a bit big and lonely I think (hence the tag along camping) so there was no way I could put my foot down here as it's be organised like some kind of big memorial weekend (don't fucking ask). I don't think she will be overly a pain in the ass ( if plaything shes my only ally in keeping the kids in line) but she's got some idyllic notion of camping thinking it will be glorious sunshine, bug free and have the damn Von Trapp family singing in the next valley over. ''Welcome to Wales'', she's' in for a |Class-A surprise I think
>>810047I'm perfectly fine with all of these bar the kids. I don't fucking like children, never have, never will. I don't see why I should have to step up and parent (when I'm electively not one myself) because other people are too lazy to do it.
The more I think about it, I may end up going with
>>809659 getting off my face and whittling a few spoons... It's going to be the wankiest of wank camping trips as it is
