Okay, we have bought into DVCabout a year ago with our first trip planned in November with my parents. In 2003 we are supposed to take my husband's brother's family and in 2005 we are supposed to take my sisters family. Sounds easy right??
WRONG!!!! This year's trip is all planned and fine. But now we are thinking of throwing in another trip in 2002 with the 2003 tripbeing my husband's brother's family (we'll call him Chris). The problem is that I gave Chris guidelines as to when we would be able to take them. Anytime between September through February. These guidelines are falling because of the lower point seasons and also low temperature and low crowds. I told my DH I refuse to go when it's hot or crowded. Now Chris tells my DH that he doesn't want to take the kids 4 & 6 out of school. He wants to go in March (Spring break)!!! Me and DH had a huge fight last night about going in March. I said I wasn't about to go, he said that we needed to bend for his family. I thought giving them 6 months of time to choose from WAS BENDING!!!
I personally don't think it's a huge thing to take the kids out of school for 5 days. What will they miss, 3 days of finger painting and 2 days of story telling??? I told my husband that it is their choice if they decide not to take their children out of school instead of bringing them to WDW with a free place to stay for a week and that there was nothing more that we can do.
PS i haven't heard back from Chris yet as too what they have decided. I also told my husband that if DVC turned into a fight every time we wanted to be generous and bring somebody I would just turn around a sell it. I want no part of anything that is going to turn the happiest thing in the world to me into a nightmare.
What do you guys think about this. Am I wrong to think that we bought this mainly for us. That it's just an extra perk that we would be able to bring people with us and not the main reason for owning it?
