<human>: (background:me 45m, she 41f, married 3 years)

Her family is very close.This year her father took us all on a week-long vacation.

I havent been on a family vacation since I was SIXTEEN. My family is close, but not *that* close. 

It took a great amount of mental preparation for me to go on that trip this past year. (i *get* the fact that this is a very generous gesture... but still... not the way I want to spend my paid vacation!)

My wife's philosophy is "who's gonna turn down a free vacation?"

Answer: **me**.

I am **sick** over the fact that he's talking (and has been talking since we got back from the last vacation) about doing it again next year.

It's not about turning down his generosity ...its more about finding our own things to do in life in our free time.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: father in law wants to take us on vacation this year...again... and we're all in our **FORTIES**... and I say...'who the hell does that??'
