In all seriousness if I was on vacation with my kids when they were babies and they were crying all the time I would find out why. If it was an ear infection etc I would end the vacation and try again another time.
Nailed it!
20 years ago, I was the young mom in a similar situation. Thankfully, we were smart enough to do a trial camping trip 3 miles from home as I knew I had a potential crier on my hands, and also a toddler who had a fascination with campfires.
Shortly after quiet time, we were the only family not quiet, and I was more than relieved to be able grab the carkeys and the baby and head for home so he could feel secure in his own bed.
