Answer 1

What has stopped you from getting together with these friends a couple of weeks ago? You had some time to get together already and didn't try harder to make things happen. I think you should go with your family. You haven't spent much time with them you say, and if you haven't gotten together with those friends already, you shouldn't use that as an excuse to not be with your family. You had so much time already and no plans were made! Go and have fun, make the best of it. You never know what can happen to your parents, don't take them for granted. Many of us don't have both parents, I bet they would love to be able to have this chance with theirs, but they can't. You can, so go with them. Have fun and make them happy. Work on getting together with your friends for the Christmas holidays.

Answer 2

I understand why you would want to get out of it, but I think you should go.  Your parents would probably be really hurt if you bailed on the family vacation AND their 25th anniversary.  Just try to suck it up, and get through it.  

Answer 3

okay, u can see your friends later, i know this is depressing, but you might not ever see your parents again, my parents are old, i don't know how old ur parents are, but u may never now what happens to them, I personally think, you can see your friends later, and go on there 25th anniversary family vacation, and maybe your parents will let u bring some friends with u, so that way u get what u want, and they get what they want...

Answer 4

fake a sickieee!!

Answer 5

Go, you will regret it later if you don't go with your parents!

Answer 6

yeah just fake sick but that's kinda sad if you haven't seen your parents a lot and it's their aniversary  

Answer 7

why would you want to get out of their anniversary?

Do you not value your family as much as your friends?

Its only 1 weekend, and you have many more to catch up with friends,

you may even enjoy it.

Im sure your parents would let you take a friend to,

then your all happy.
