    Spending a holiday with another family sounds like a good idea. It enables your kids to play with other kids, enables you to communicate with other parents, and enables your family to rent a bigger and nicer house. It might be too expensive for your family to rent such a house on your own. However, not all sharing holidays are pleasant for everyone.
    Clare is a mother of four. She used to spend holidays with her friends. However, she found that the experience was painful although her friends are nice people. Her friends rented a nice house and invited her family to join them. The house was much more expensive than Clare was able to pay for. In addition, her children were too young to enjoy the holiday. The big problem was that Clare had to share the cooking during the holiday. Her friends left their children with their nanny (保姆) when they were cooking. Keeping up with children was tiring for Clare, because she didn’t have a nanny. What’s more, her children didn’t want to be looked after by her friends. As a result, Clare had to look after her children whenever she had to prepare the dinner. What’s worse, Clare’s friends paid too much attention to how many ice creams their children had. They even didn’t care about Clare’s kids at all.
