I say it. And I know what I'm talking about. This summer my wife, Beth Ann, and I spent a couple days visiting some historic sites in New York's Hudson River Valley. The kids were interested in Rugrats, not Roosevelts, and would not be content to spend time whiling away the hours in historic homes and museums. At Historic Traveler we have to face the facts.
Many former children have unpleasant memories of being dragged to historic sites by their parents.
Beth Ann still claims to bear emotional scars from being forced to visit Gettysburg over the July Fourth weekend in 1976.
