[quote=Anonymous]It really comes down to whether you'd enjoy it. I would not enjoy traveling with my 3 year old or 3 month old. The kind of vacations we like to do involve a lot of all-day hiking, often in lousy weather. Have hiked all over England and Scotland and loved it. We have a limited amount of money for international travel and I'm not going to spend it on something that we won't love. Which pretty much eliminates international travel for us -- at least with kids -- until the kids are 12 or so. Given how much money we're spending on day care, that's probably a good thing!

I took my first trip abroad at 17, to Japan. DH didn't go abroad until he met me, in his late 20s. I lived in Japan for several years and have traveled a reasonable amount in Asia and Europe. Nothing compared to what a lot of people do, but enough to get outside the US and see different perspectives. Not going as a small child did not affect my interest in other countries and cultures. Do what you want to do; the kid will be fine either way, so it's really about what you want for yourself.[/quote]
