From experience. One baby won't have a huge impact if it's healthy etc and she's a decent mother. Two kids things go south. Admittedly I was kiting when my wife went into la out with second but two weeks in she had the whole sit down and talk session. Just come off a four hour session and both babies were on the wAr path. Depends on your mates ability to communicate what is needed. My wife knows if kiting doesn't hAppen then a bear with a sore head.
Let ya mate know that when the wind is not blowing then it's kid hands on time. Build the gratis points up let her go out and have that seemingly important coffee with a friend. When their is no wind I'm daddy of the Darwin yeAr when not then all bets are off.
Kids now a little older 3 and 4 and it gets much easier. Let my wife go just go on a 6 day Aussies open melbounrne tour with her lady friends. Gratis points big time to cash in!!!
In summAry lay down the conditions eArly And yeh the 4 hour downwinder is not a given but a couple hours here and there plus an occasional kite trip with ya mates is fine. Ones fine two is trouble three forget it until you get the kids hooked as well!! Met a bloke with 7 and he gets out.
My mate got a phone call while we were at the pub, from his misses, saying her water just broke and she is heading to the hospital, please get here as soon as you can.
He told us, and we all cheered and congradulated him and bought him a beer, and another beer, and another beer, "I gotta go after this one" and another beer, "I gotta drink this quick and get a cab to the hospital" and a couple of shots later,,,,,,where did he go,,,,,must have got a cab to the hospital??????
While his wife was giving birth, he was passed out in the garden out front of the pub.

Haha if she's a decent mother.......nice
I hope all of the mothers get some sort of equal time to do their own thing..
I know a guy who just sent his wife to bali on a retreat....now that is a smart man....he does dirt biking and goes on his weekends as a result
more to the point, what type of gear does he ride, is it fairly new and will he let you take it all down to the beach to "dust of the spiderwebs" for him?
I kite all the time with a eight month old. Well, not with him, he is usually at home... No but seriously, all depends on the relationship and the baby. It does help living a block from the beach. Often, my woman gets out on the training kite and I take the little one one in the backpack when the wind it light. ;-) Just getting ready for when when he gets older and family vacation with kiting parents.
