Its about how selfish one is. Sure we can cram our tiny kids into plane to Japan and do that trip we planned like there is no tomorrow. But if you know a bit about child's mind you know how stressful for them that whole experience would be.

Eh, I guess, but I look back on traveling as a kid as one of the best parts of my childhood. I was bored as hell on the plane but I got over it.

Well, I'd just compromise.

Travel locally, by car. Trips of about 3-4-5 hours should be doable, for extended weekends or week long vacations.

You probably want school-aged kids if you really want to go far across different time zones.
