OP here - The more I think about the bills and what ya'll have posted I think it would be better if we put off Disney for a year or two and get the bills paid down or better yet paid off! We could always in the meantime, go on day trips like we did this summer. thanks everyone
I think this is not only a good decision for you and your husband, but the best decision for your children. You're setting an example for them that they will remember. Explain to them about money and bills and debt.
I can't imagine any parent wanting their child to grow up living with the stress of having debt over their head. By teaching your children about money now, you ensure that they're practical later in life and don't end up in a bad position.
I just don't personally think it's a good idea to raise children to think they can have everything they want in life when the money just isn't there.
