In a closed loop cruise you probably will not need it. I am in a similar situation, my ex will not sign a passport application just because he wants to make my life difficult. I booked my cruise recently making sure I was going to the bahamas, nassau, etc. I double and tripple checked to make sure I would only need their BC's. I'm also bringing my divorce papers that say I can bring them anywhere in the country or out of the country as long as I provide him with the itinerary.
If I had the time and the money I would go to court and get the passports, however with one family judge in the county I am in, it will not happen, however if it did.... I know the judge would frown upon him for trying to stop me from making memories with my children.

I booked a vacation for my kids and I. My daughter is 16 and my son is 9. Of course I'm a bit worried if they will have tons of fun. Their age difference does not bring them together much. I'm wondering if they will hang around me all the time or if they will go off and see how much fun there is.
My daughter has anxiety but no meds for it. (my ex is against it and we have 50/50 medical big battle). I'm thinking of taking her to the doctor to see if I can get something for these 6 days for her or maybe something natural at the vitamin store. Anyone have experience with that?
My ex also wants a number to reach them. I can take them out of the country as long as I provide him an itinerary. I was not able to get passports, as my ex will not sign (though I just found out my 16 year old can get one without a signature. I'd have to take him to court where yes I'd get a passport becuase no judge would expect them not to be able to create memories with me, but that is more money and no time now. I'm not to worried about no passports as I'll make sure if I do excursions I do Carnival ones. He (my ex) thinks he needs a number for them as he is suppose to be able to talk to them at anytime. Seriously part of my life and it never ends with him.
However, I intend for this to be a great vacation, anticipating my 16 year old only one more summer after this one before college. And my second husband left me in April to be with his exwife so I'm ready for some relaxing fun with my "babies"!
Any tips? Suggestions? Anyone taken kids alone before?
Thank you so much! -

I've enjoyed this post a lot! As a 38 year old single mom who started my career in teaching (not teaching to get rich!), I always wonder if I'll get to travel much in my lifetime.
I have bought a smaller home, making sometimes double payments to pay it off early. Most of my friends live in nicer neighborhoods, but I like my older neighborhood. I have an old car that still runs. I have yet to start investing as I haven't a clue where to start, nor do I think I am ready financially to begin investing.
I hope there are many cruises for me to come!
