[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just cannot even with all these pearl-clutching DCUMers. As the college prof said, these are the ones who send young adults to college at 18 who are utterly incapable of handling anything independently because their parents have grossly oversmothered them and stunted their growth. THAT is bad parenting. OP, you know your kids. If you are confident they're capable being alone together in a hotel room for a few hours, of course it's fine at those ages.[/quote]

From Hershey to Philadelphia and back--that journey alone would be "a few hours"--even if they didn't spend a single minute in the museum!
My kids are older and  in college.   They are not "oversmothered"  or stunted in their growth and handle things independently.   [/quote]

Can you not read?

OP said they may stay in Philly [b]or[/b] Hershey [b]or[/b] Lancaster.  [/quote]

I sure can but obviously you can not.  The OP specifically said "I was thinking Hershey with all 3 kids [u]and[/u] maybe take little one to the please touch museum"[/quote]

OP here. I did not map everything out but I was thinking one night Hershey and then moving hotels to Philadelphia.

I asked DH and he thinks it would be easier for me to just take the little one and leave the two older kids at home. I could do Sesame Place and/or Dutch Wonderland and the Please Touch Museum. My older kids are too old for all these places. We can do Hershey Park some other time this summer or just skip if our schedule doesn't allow. I don't want to go to Hershey on a weekend.[/quote]
