Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 11:28 am
My family is quite boring and we never go on big trips. I live in Rhode Island (the smallest state in the country) and my dad thinks trips to the city next to us is fun. the drive is 10 minutes and it's no fun. we've went to New Hampshire twice every year for the past 13 years. yeah it's boring now. and we've never gotten to the West Coast or even in the MidWest. I've been to Florida before when i was 7 but we drove and it was the worst drive in my life. my mom and sister are afraid to go on planes. i've never been on a plane before but i'm not scared. i really want to travel around the country and see different places and i feel like i'm wasting my life not going anyhere. my mom and sister are also afraid of boats and trains so thats out of the question. i really would like to go to Aruba or California or Minnesota (mall of america) but i'll never get to go. this summer we are going to pennsylvania (we're driving.) we never go anywhere fun and i want to get out of the NorthEast and explore other places. my best friend moved to texas and wants us to visit her and theres no way we can drive.
i really want to persuade my dad to go on vacation with me since my mom and sister won't go by anything other than a car. i've never even been on a plane and i just want to live a little
Additional info, added Tuesday February 20 2007, 11:28 am: how can i tell my dad that i'm sick of these vacations that are 3 hours away from where we live and i want to see the rest of the U.S???. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Families? runawayxlove answered Tuesday February 20 2007, 2:21 pm: hey, lol sorry i had to laugh. there afraid of planes, boats, AND trains?! haha. anyways, its a good idea just asking your dad to go with you. but it might spark up some jealously and hurtful feelings. you should have a family meeting and purpose the idea there. talk to each family member individually and save your dad for last.
