[quote=Anonymous]I am struggling with deciding whether to bring AP on a couple family trips. It sounded good in theory, but when I added up the cost of the extra hotel room, and an extra train or airplane ticket, I got sticker shock--several hundred dollars more even for a short weekend trip up the East Coast--multiples of AP's weekly stipend. Even if AP works on the trip, it is hard to stomach paying that much just for a few hours of childcare. What do other families do? Do you pay up so your AP has a chance to travel in the US, or give her the time off? I feel slightly bad leaving AP behind and paying the extra money won't break us, but this is super expensive childcare. TIA.[/quote]
