Our kids have been all over the world and enjoy traveling. It’s a bit naive to think every child is the same. I question your judgment regarding other people’s parenting.

It’s not about the children’s capacity to adjust. They always do. That’s what kids do.

I am talking about taking children into an insecure situation in a foreign country to the point where you have to scramble to find housing for the night.

That said, I have a friend who’s mom had a need to travel frequently when she was young. She’s been all over the world. When I asked her whether it was worth it for her her, she said that it wasn’t. She just wanted to be home sometimes. She just wanted her mom to be happy so she went along, smiling.
