I'll be hiding and hoping the mother in law goes to her daughter's and my other sister in law goes to her in laws for Christmas and New Year.

Christmas day will be like any other day the only difference being I'll have a toad in the hole for dinner and will probably have my once a year dessert of apple crumble and ice cream.

Re: Christmas Holidays

We have a bunch of family coming. There will be ten of us with seven staying overnight. My wife is the cook so we have become the hub.

My Ex is quite forceful, he may have to go to her place in Suffolk to keep the peace.

It is all very fluid.
Why, Swimmy? She hasn't bothered to visit him since he has been ill - and you were so looking forward to being with him this year!

Swim, may I ask how old your son is please?

Surely he can decide for himself where he would rather be at Christmas!
Has he said if he minds going to Sabrina's, or his Mum's or whether he would prefer to stay with you?

Perhaps he could do what a lot of family's do, and spend Christmas day with one parent, and Boxing day with the other?
Would that keep the peace?
