[quote=Anonymous]OP, I know and admire a single mom (maybe she posts here) who has traveled the world and had amazing adventures pre-parenthood. She infuses her toddler's life with so much adventure. Even when our kids were babies, she was traveling locally, checking out new spots. It's just who she is. I have no doubt that she will continue to bring excitement and adventure to their lives together. But to my knowledge, none of her travels with her child involve mysterious snacks on a chicken bus.

I agree with the other posters that adventure is what you make of it and can be found closer to home. Kids love and crave routine - can you "discover" a local beach that you visit together? Think of these next few years as providing the home base that your children will be prepared to stray from and explore - and feel about coming home to.

I'm not trying to put you down, but from the description, it sounds like DH is trying to prioritize the mental health and physical well-being of your family at this stage. Gently, is there something else that might at issue here? I know that when I get the travel bug, I either book a flight, or examine how I can have mini adventures in the meantime.

Good luck to you![/quote]
