[quote=Anonymous]I justify it by reminding myself that my kids are teens now and will only be living with us a few more short years. This is the only time we have left to take them places we want while they are still under our roof and it is not optional for them. I am trying to show them some of the wonders of the world, hoping they may look back one day and appreciate all that they were able to experience, even though they are moody and would rather stay home and not go anywhere. We are probably spending at least $20k per year on trips (which is 10% of our HHI) and I do feel a twinge that I could be saving it for their college or for retirement, but I have decided I'm already saving enough for those other things and I need to balance taking advantage of the opportunity to travel with my kids while we can.[/quote]
