I would like to travel abroad with my 3 year old to visit my parents. But my wife is dead against it . she can’t travel with us for a few reasons. But won’t allow me do it alone either. Major concern being that kid is too small and international travel is a disruption that he doesn’t need. I haven’t seen my parents in 2 years - and they miss their grandchild. Kid unfortunately had corona recently - so has immunity. There may not be another opportune moment. What am I not getting.

Have you explored any trust issues that she may not want to admit? Once a parent has their kids out of a country and into a country where they are citizens, it can be very difficult legally if they decide to not return.

Have you spent a bunch of time alone with this kid or both kids? It is possible that is something she is unsure about. Also, a 3-year old can be irrationally needy and depending on how far you are, make it very hard to deal with his separation anxiety fast enough. You know your kids and spouse best re answers to these questions. Not sure you will find answers here, beyond a bunch of suggesting possible reasons why she is reluctant.

Not sure EY1s labeling and stereotyping are helpful.

Does your wife have a good relationship with your parents? Are you planning to travel and then leave him with them while you go off doing activities? How long did you plan to travel for - it may make her uncomfortable not seeing him/her for so long if this would be their first real time apart. Lots of potential reasons.

Can your parents come to you?

I just did 22h of travel with my kids and wife, it went very well. You will need to book business

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!
