[quote=Anonymous]We spent almost a decade as expats (and had young kids for most of that time). No way in h&^% would I bring young kids that far back for a wedding unless I could combine it with a long trip back home to catch up with everyone (like 3+ weeks). We came back once a year and came back for 4-6 weeks normally (DH and I would take turns flying back to our place of residence for work since we couldn't take that much time off). The only short trips we made back were either DH or me for weddings or funerals on our own - no kids. The traveling and the jet lag is so hard on them and at that age, they can't just "rally" through. In your case, I would definitely just send DH, wouldn't feel the least bit guilty about it and don't try to justify it. Just make your decision and live with it. Your DH should manage the communications with his family.[/quote]
