Lol. I'm also not the biggest fan of children, but what are the parents supposed to do? Not having vacation? Leave them home alone? Throw them out the window on the drive to the airport?
get a sitter. If you can afford a holiday, budget for a sitter.
Or don’t have holidays until the snot factories are old enough to behave if you can’t afford a sitter. You chose to have children.
Let's see who will pay for your retirement and medical care eventually... (unless if you live in that US hellscape ofcourse)
If you're having kids with the express intent that they care for you when you're old, you're already doing it wrong.
