This is a topic of frequent disagreements on Fodors. Personally, I have never regretted waiting until my kids were teens to bring them to Europe. We all enjoyed simple cabin-on-a-lake, or car-trip type family vacations. But evidnetly lots of people must have way more money (and patience) than me!

"I am a nurse and feel that it would be detrimental to your child to expose him/her to the wind and sun in a convertible, not to mention that it is not as safe as a sedan"
Oh, the old "sedan" is safer logic. LOL
I was rear ended on the interstate. The interstate was STOPPED. The woman hitting me was driving the big US car. My Saab convertible gave it's life for me. I had not a scratch or a bruise.... the woman in the "safe" big car who hit me had to be transported to the ER in an ambulance. Size and tops are NOT gurantees of safety.
