[quote=Anonymous]Personally I wouldn’t leave my children with someone other than family - unless it was someone like a sitter used for a long period that I trusted and I were in driving distance. We travel without the kids using family and even then I have a signed and notarized medical power of attorney - just in case. It’s hard to think about, but you have to be prepared in case there was an emergency and you are a flight away, and of course you have to be prepared in case something happens to you (including delays in returning). We have also traveled kid free during sleep away camp, but make sure a relative is in driving distance of camp in case anything were to happen. I’ve known families who had to return to pick up early, whether for homesickness or accidents or sudden illness, and you don’t want to be on a safari in Africa if that happened unless you have some back up.[/quote]
