All the same, I think there are certian things that kids do, just because that's what kids do. Don't you remember trying as hard as you could to get out of the watchful eye of your parents? I went on lots of trips as a kid where there were other families with kids. My sister and I would make up excuses to go off by ourselves, or sometimes we would just sneak away. Running up and down hallways in hotels was *the* funnest thing around, as far as I was concerned (until Mom curtailed things). We weren't bad kids, and they aren't bad parents, but we were having fun. Sometimes, I think we forget that kids need to run around, be loud and have fun.
