Taking your kids to Rome means showing them the Colosseum, the Vatican, and 2,000 years of history. It can also mean travel delays, brutal heat, and more trips to McDonald’s than you planned. In this episode, Ryan shares what a family vacation to Rome reminded him about compromise, curiosity, and letting kids experience a place in their own way.
