Travel expands the mind for some, and is nothing but an anxiety-inducing experience for others. I grew up in Canada, and other than the USA (which pre-911 was almost like domestic travel), I didn't travel anywhere foreign until I was 31. Perhaps over time her view will soften. But if not, there's a heck of a lot of see and experience in America that she can experience. It's a big ol' country.
Glad that you and your daughter got back home safe and sound.
