Not going on this particular trip sounds like a good choice.
The phrasing of the OP 'sounded' too much like an AV opportunity .

That's sobriety, Jeff.

We sometimes have to make decisions that place our sobriety at the top of our priorities.

You've made a good choice and it's one you won't regret. There are plenty of ways to spend time with your father. You already know that your mother pushes your buttons so it doesn't sound like a real tough one in the long run.
