[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kids are on a rigid schedule and you cater to their every whim, then they will always drive the plans…

Your kids are still young, but once they are in preschool, you should be able to travel more easily. Once they are reliably toilet trained, game on.

You will be best served if you are able to equip them to be good travelers: flexible, curious, and happy to be on vacation with the family. [/quote]

I agree generally it does get easier as they get older, and yes "equipping them to be flexible, curious", etc is great. But frankly you sound like someone who just got easy kids. One of ours is very much like that. One is very much not even though we tried to equip him to be "flexible, curious", etc. One of my siblings was the same way when we were kids. 2 of us always happy for trips, excited to explore, etc. The other one not so much, and now not as a 40+ adult. Some people just aren't like that, or are on the spectrum, etc The idea that it's solely up to you as a parent is something parents of easy kids tell themselves.[/quote]
