> We’re certainly very lucky in many ways, but besides the financial aspect, Your observations are valid, but you can't just sidestep the financial aspect of it, my dude. This is, like, 70% of the hardship of having kids from what I've found. Like this: > If we need to drive 9 hours, we might break that into three days, and visit places that are about 3 hours apart. If we fly somewhere and it’s long, we try to go to immediately go to a hotel as close as possible to the airport so that we can all conk out if we need to. Is straight up not possible for a family of 3 or more with a total household income of less than $150k in the US. On-premise airport hotels that aren't complete chaos are usually $200/night and many people in the US get hardly any vacation time (which is a whole other problem in its own right).
