[quote=Anonymous]^^^ I hear you re: a "culminating event" and a tourist trip. Having travelled to Asia several times before, I'm concerned about the effect jet lag can have on the kids, in both directions. Kids often handle being very tired by acting out. I wouldn't want to be responsible for a bunch of kids under such conditions. At the same time, I still tuck my kids into bed myself, not sure I would want a stranger to have that responsibility or to have the kids just left on their own. I suppose my concerns are the reason why a lot of parents plan to make the trip with their kids. In my case, it might not be a good time to take off from work, and although we could scrape together the money, I could think of better uses for our money. So we may not participate. Still an open question.[/quote]
