[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My cousin and her husband take separate flights when traveling as a family. They have four kids, so each parent takes 2 kids. They do this with car trips as well. Two cars instead of the family van. It's weird, IMO. To each their own, but it's morbid reasoning. Especially when you consider that a short trip to drop a kid off at an activity is riskier than a roadtrip or flying. [/quote] Joseph & Rose Kennedy did this - the parents never flew together so their kids wouldn't be orphaned if the worst happened. I'm not sure that a short trip to drop a kid off is riskier in the sense that's being considered by this action than flying is - that risk assessment is "car accident" vs. "plane crash," not mortality risk. Meaning driving around your neighborhood you're more likely to get in a car accident, but in any given car wreck (which includes fender benders), it's not as likely for everyone in the car to die. /tangent[/quote]
