Honestly, a 5 hour plane ride would not kill your children, if anything .. and this is how my devious mind works ... at worst it will make them cranky, and soley your W's problem, I do feel the more real things get for her, the better chance that she comes to her senses and nothing can get more real than good ole travel stress.

Regardless your W should have her time with the kids, vaca where they wish .. these are things out of your control (for the most part) provided she is not going to move out of state nor put the children in harms way, thankfully my W never seemed to lose it THAT bad.


Yep. If I were your W, I'd be pissed because I would feel like you were controlling me. Especially after you had already said in an email previously, "no problem" - even if that wasn't your context.

I agree with Caliguy -five hours on a plane isn't THAT bad, and honestly? It's your W's problem to deal with. If the situation were reversed, would you like her telling you where you can and cannot take your children to vacation?
