[quote=Anonymous]I am a single parent who makes a lot less than you do, although I feel as though we have enough. We generally fly a couple of times a year. We generally visit the grandparents for one vacation and for the second we split a rental condo with the grandparents somewhere. We do this because my father is in his eighties, and you just never know how long anyone has. As my child gets older, we'll go farther afield. I do want to mention that there are ways of keeping travel cheap (rentals, eating in or from grocery store deli counters, house sitting, WOW Airlines). I also want to mention that there in DC, where so many jobs require travel, travel skills will be as valuable to your kids professionally as anything they learn in college. For work, I've had to figure out the commuter rail in random European cities on several occasions, and just getting airport transportation in some places can be dicey. The more you practice these skills, the better you will be at quickly figuring them out.[/quote]
