[quote=Anonymous]At what age can you start taking a child on a long car trip, and how do you make it tolerable? While my family is local, my husband's family lives in another state. Our baby is 9 months old and has never been to his dad's hometown. Pressure is mounting for a visit, particularly since we missed Christmas due to Covid. I love my in-laws, but it's at least a 7-hour drive without traffic. I realize we will have to stop to feed our son, plus I've read that babies can't shouldn't stay in a car seat more than 2 hours, so I feel like this drive will take forever. How have others managed this? (And yes, we're working on convincing my in-laws to come here instead, but I know we will have to make this trip eventually.)[/quote]
