There's nothing like a nice romantic getaway to clear your head and reconnect with your partner. Nothing to do except drink Piña Coladas on the beach while you dig your toes into the sand. Just you, your partner… and your partner's mother? Hold on, wait a minute. Is this the plot of the next Adam Sandler Netflix movie?

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the husband, u/tripjackedaita, who posted the topic with the title "AITA For telling my wife that she hijacked our anniversary trip?" He posted the topic to the popular subreddit in order to appeal to readers and see whether or not he was wrong for reacting the way he did when his wife invited his mother-in-law on their trip. His wife is upset with him for his comments and he's upset with her for even inviting her mother.

What do you think? Who's in the wrong here? What's the call?
