[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in DC and my parents prioritized paying for tuition over home improvements or travel — we have amazing memories of going to Bethany for a few days on spring break and riding the (chilly) waves on the inflatable rafts. It was our first trip to the ocean. I’m guessing people are so focused on “what will the neighbors think” these days that no one would have the guts to make a family trip like that anymore…not wanting to deal with the eye rolls. Also, if you get your kids involved in travel sports, there are often tournaments during breaks that demand your presence—harder to feel bad about not jetting to the Caribbean if it’s just not going to work with your schedule.[/quote]
