[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a family, we’ve always traveled. It’s our thing. I’d rather spend money on trips than tons of gifts at birthdays/holidays on crap that’ll end up being donated/broken/discarded. DC has been traveling internationally since Kindergarten and has always loved it which is great.

Post-pandemic I think people want to travel even if they didn’t before. Now that the world has experienced what it’s like to be locked down in your house nevermind your country, people want to get out there now. Plus as your kids get older people tend to travel to do things together as a family before kids go away to college.

With all that being said, DC has been in private school from the start and due to the wealth you’re surrounded by that comes with attending private, yeah post every school break the topic of where everyone traveled/summered was discussed and could feel like a pissing match.

It's only a pissing match if you're insecure.[/quote]

Yeah, the phrase "pissing match" really gives away OP's jealousy and insecurity. It doesn't really apply in a reasonable way to people talking about their travel. [/quote]
