I don't like um. I am in the "No Slide Out Camp" (pun intended) .
First, if you want your TT to be more roomier get one with a Rear Bathroom. Putting the bathroom in the middle always makes it hourglass shaped and makes it harder to move around. My TT with the rear bath and right side (curb side) dinette TT works well.
Second, I agree with some of the posters that said you can have a good time with your family without them. If you can't then you should work that out before you leave.
Third, your camping. Go Outside ! Don't spend the whole time in the camper.
As for rainy days. Go to a museum, Go to a zoo, Go to a movie, Go to a show, Go out to eat, Go to antique store, Go shopping, Go Somewhere !!! Get out and do things ! The camper is for sleeping and a few other things but, it's not a home.
On a really bad day when there is rain and no way to Go find other things to do. Board Games, Word Games, and other things can be done. Reading a book is becoming a lost art but, it still can be done. And,,, finally,,, these days most kids and young adults have enough games and entertainment in their phones to keep them busy. That's a last resort though.
How often are you really going to be inside anyway??? Hopefully not very much.
Have a nice Day.
