[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, don't get this. Travel is for adults, not kids. If you don't act like a trip will suck for kids, they absolutely will not know any better.[/quote]

Sounds like you should just leave them home!  Sure you can take your 5 year old kid on a 25 mile day hike or plan a 7 hour guided tour of an ancient history museum in a language they do not speak but why would you?  We plan around everyone's interests and ability to enjoy...the trip is for all involved.[/quote]

Because they learn to enjoy new things? This is not rocket science. [/quote]

You didn’t.  You basically said your parents took you places you didn’t want to go and not it’s your turn.  You don’t look back in those trips with joy or fondness at all the things you learned.  And there are half measures.  We did a different trip to the Netherlands with our kids than without.  When I ski alone, I do blacks but when I ski with my kids I do blue and green and it’s good.  When we go to NYC we visit things we’ve done before to share it with them (Statue of Liberty) and things we haven’t and it’s good.  [/quote]
