Just wish they'd make these things a bit more affordable. Taking the train to Paris or London with my family is literally twice the price of flying and god knows how many times driving. I'd much rather take the train.

If you think of it in terms of carbon footprint and what your children's future is worth to you, then the train wins no contest.

Sure but they may also think in terms of what’s possible. Perhaps they can’t afford to pay double for a vacation.
