#2 If me being here right now means my kids later on down the road wont be here, then its worthwhile.

I'm sure our fathers and grandfathers said the same thing about Germany. We're still there. However, the biggest danger for a decade or two has been too much German beer and the autobahn. Of course Central Europe has seen the longest stretch of peace since Rome was the regional power, making the chore far better than the historical alternatives. Write it up as cost avoidance.
