Over-exposure on a trip abroad
Seattle Times - When we take our children on trips, we want travel to be
broadening, something that opens their eyes to the rest of the world.
But not too broadening.
Embarking on a trip to England recently, my 10-year-old daughter and I settled
into our seats on a British Airways plane from Seattle to London. She was looking
forward to the in-flight movie, always a good way for kids to pass the time at 35,000
feet. I was looking forward to a couple of hours of peaceful reading while she
watched the film. Scrap that plan.
The movie that flickered onto the cabin's screen was an R-rated, sex-and-murder
film called "The Whole Nine Yards."
