[quote=Anonymous]In September, some of my relatives will gather in a European country to attend a public ceremony marking an event in which my ancestor played a role. My adult kid will attend. My husband and I cannot attend, but I was wondering if my high schooler should go. She has lived in the US all her life and has the least connection to our European history. I feel this would help her understand her origins. The problem is that she picked a very serious load of classes for 10th grade and she's going to be stressed out about missing a week of school, and might hate traveling to Europe by herself (she'd be picked up at the airport by her brother and relatives, of course). But this event is not likely to re-occur. The head of the family who invited us is elderly and in poor health. It might be her only chance at meeting him at his best (tasked with this public presentation, he loves those). What would you do? [/quote]
