How Family Is Important
How can I convince parents to visit other family instead of working?
My “beloved” relatives that I barely get to see (they’re from VA and I’m from AZ) are coming to visit and they invited me to come stay with them to find a house for a week. On the other side, I like-omg-confirmed-and-promised this lady boss that I’d council these little kids at a kids camp for seven weeks to help out..and she doesn’t like it when people cancel on her.
My dad just called and said that my mom told him that the boss hates it when people cancel their omg-commitment to her. I had no idea my relatives that I HARDLY get to see were coming over.
WHAT CAN I DO TO CHANGE THEIR MIND!? My dad already called my relatives telling them I can’t go!!! I wasn’t saying I wanted to totally remove the seven weeks for counciling kids thing!!! I was thinking about just taking that week off just to be with my family!
Isn’t family important!??!
I’m still under the driving age lol, thanks though
Relatives are looking for house in Prescott, I live in Phoenix
You can try to get the week off.. but you really should honor your first committment. It is not as if you will never see them again. If they are looking for a house does that mean they will be living nearby? You made a commitment and you need to honor that. I’m sure you will see them again at some point in the future. Perhaps drive to see them the weekend they arrive so you can see them for a little bit but then drive back for work.
Family how important is it?!!!
