[quote=Anonymous]Go read the thread on this in the MD schools forum. In short: the overwhelming consensus is that you should go. It's not a big deal at all. Kids with relatives in India, Mexico, etc. miss WEEKS of school to visit relatives (2-3 at a time). The naysayers on that thread fall into these categories: (1) delusional nervous nellies who think missing a week of elementary school will somehow mess up their kid's shot at an Ivy, (2) snobby people who would pull their kids out for Europe but not (gasp) disney, and (3) miserable people who don't seem capable of having fun (or perhaps they're just envious?). We pulled our kids out for a similar situation. I had a business trip to Orlando. My work put us up at the boardwalk, paid for my flight, cabs, and a $100 per diem. Of course I took my DH and kids along! We had a blast! [/quote]
