[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. There are 2 very distinct answers on this thread.

1. Every man for himself. You're on your own. Good luck. Let's not talk to each other and all do the same work, but separately.

2. It takes a village. We're all parents, we're all friends, let's do this together and share the responsibilities. We'll all get a tiny break and it will feel like a vacation.

Personally, I think team 1 sucks. For me, part of the fun of traveling with friends is sharing the responsibilities. It may be more work on the front end with planning, but on vacation it's actually less work for everyone and more like a vacation.

Team Village!

PS-- Team 1 sounds very republican to me, no?[/quote]

Not taking the politics bait--no need to bring that into this discussion.  But it sounds like cousin is actually on team 3:  I take from the village (meals, childcare, etc.) but I don't give to the village.  If she were actually team 1, then she would bring her own food, feed herself, and refuse help with her kid.  [/quote]
