Most of us associate solo trips with single people. But parents need some quality alone time, too! In fact, 77% of Americans believe that mom and dad should go on trips without kids. What’s more, experts say that parents should travel without each other as well – it’s a great way to reduce everyday stress and friction in the relationship.
One young family had a similar arrangement, but one day, the dad sprang up his solo trip plans on the mom unexpectedly. Since they didn’t have a full-time nanny and had 7-month-old twins, the mom felt it was too early for him to leave the family alone. But who do you think was right in this situation?
