    Question Sending DD overseas for 6 weeks - would you do it?

    Ok. I am off Croatian background and we travel fairly regularly back there. My dad is possibly going again this year for the European summer for approx 6 weeks in July/August/September. There is the possiblility that DD (who will be 7.5) can go with him. We (me and my DH) will not be travelling this year to Croatia.

    So would you send her? She is familiar with the places she is staying (has already been there twice including last year), knows our family very well and would be well looked after. In fact she loves it so much over there that once she hears my dad is going she will be begging us to go too.

    It would be essentially up to 6 weeks of her swimming all day every day. She will be in a small village with lots of children so she will have the company. She can get by with the language as a lot of people speak English and she knows some Croatian.

    But she is only 7 and I would miss her. But it would also be fantastic for her to go.

    Nothing is 100% decided yet if even my dad will go but I thought I better address the issue before it comes up.

    Would you send her?
