The idea is always to leave early, only to get stuck in traffic anyway. But what are ideas worth when you have small children? And when Honey is nowhere to be found? And the passports? How can you relax when children's disco musicianVolker Rosin blares on repeat from the Creative Tonie, and your daughter announces she is about to be sick – and then actually is?
Vacationing with kids is not really a vacation. Especially for parents who want to get everything right in their upbringing. They long for their children’s childhood to be just like their own, but better. Judith Luig, author and mother of two, bravely attempts various holiday models, only to repeatedly fail at achieving the "perfect" vacation: the one with friends who itemize every ice cream, the pony farm trip with horse-crazy moms and endless mucking out, the family hotel where the kids take over, or the one with grandparents who aren't keen on babysitting.
This book offers liberating humor and heartfelt honesty for parents who do not have time for therapy sessions because they are too busy searching for Honey. And the passports.
