Sure,it costs more money to have your kids’ on separate passports but consider: What if you and = your spouse separate and the kids are on the “wrong” passport? That could be the devil's own job to change especially if there's some disagreement over custody. What if you are delayed overseas for some _ reason and you want to send your child(ren) home ahead of you? What if Dad and one kid want to scoot over the border to Holland one day while you and another kid MORE ON PASSPORTS Give kids their own trayel- wise b y Barba ra McCreadie opt for shopping in Brussels?
