Translation of Patensohn

It actually happened to my cousin's youngest kid. He was repeatedly warned not to smoke in the courtyard of the school. At the end he found himself expelled from the school. It could have been an interesting experience for him though.
I have three children, Michelle, Cathy and Joe. Unfortunately, my parents do not live in the area. I am glad that they visit every 2 weeks, although they are already over 70 years old.
Why do I never travel? This is a very good question, but I do not know how to answer it: On one hand, I like the landscape, but on the other hand it annoys me to pack and to drive or fly.
