Six major misconceptions about traveling with kids

1. When road-tripping, if the kids start acting up, never scold them, never lecture them, and absolutely under no circumstances lose your temper—take it seriously and you’ve already lost the game.

2. On foot? Don’t underestimate your kids’ stamina. When they act out, it might not be because they’re really tired—it could just be sheer boredom...

3. Stuck in the middle of nowhere with a broken-down car, feeling like no one’s listening when you cry for help? Helpless? Thinking of calling your insurance company? Don’t. First, hide Dad... (applicable in European regions)

4. Is traveling with lots of stuff a hassle? Actually, just bring one thing and all your troubles will be solved.

5. Who says moms traveling with kids can’t take great photos? It mostly comes down to self-control.
