[quote=Anonymous]As for bringing a 7-year-old, frankly, I wouldn't do an international trip with a 7-year-old unless it was to a place where people spoke English. (unless the child spoke the language of the country I was visiting.) The biggest fear I would have is that if the child wandered off or we got separated in a busy marketplace, then it would be extremely difficult for the child to communicate to someone that he was lost and who is mother was, et cetera. And with a child that age, you always have to worry about getting separated. And this isn't a slight to nonEnglish speaking people. It's really just about logistics. It's hard enough for an adult to communicate to others who don't speak the language when traveling, but it's pretty impossible for a child. And in places like Morocco, with busy, winding side streets and marketplaces, I would imagine it wouldn't take much for the kid to get lost.[/quote]
