NTA. I wouldnโt do any of this let alone with a small child. Itโs too much to ask and itโs just begging for tantrums because heโs hungry or overtired or overstimulated or bored. Or difficulties involving vomiting or nappy changes.
The adults can also get tired and stressed, maybe get into fights.
Itโs ultimately between you guys but I looked at that itinerary and it all looks like way too much.
Iโm extremely antisocial and introverted irl so would probably refuse and if need be I would fake illness
its more a money thing for me. I spending all this money to go spend christmas with them and they decide "actually, we might not even do christmas here" is a but sucky.
Maybe tell them itโs too expensive to do it then.
Hopefully Mrs B agrees somewhat that 1k plus flights plus misc is too much.
