[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think with 2 kids you can be a jet setter on adventures for months.  This is not reality based.  Maybe in your retirement.  [/quote]

OP here. I personally know several families with young kids who do this, plus many others in my mom travel groups on Facebook. It's not necessarily 5-star travel and it's with kids, so it is hard and messy, but many regular families are having amazing travel adventures all the time. ESPECIALLY now with remote work becoming more common. I have friends whose husbands are consultants or lawyers traveling around with their young kids right now.

It's a matter of priorities - choosing a career that would accommodate this kind of flexibility, cutting spending on other things (house, cars, etc)...my DH just doesn't prioritize travel that much so it doesn't happen for us.

I don't think one approach is better than another, but I wish we weren't so different. [/quote]

I’m pretty sure your “mom travel groups on Facebook” don’t necessarily show you the whole picture.  I really feel sorry for your husband.  He knows he’s a disappointment to you.  I think he’s given up trying to make you happy.  Time for both of you to move on.  [/quote]
