Question arises as to why they didn't just buy a bigger car when they needed it. If the oldest were 12 and 14, they had to have known they needed more room. It couldn't have been 12 years since they bought their last car, now could it?
Answer: They are slobs and unfit to be parents.

You are using logic in an effort to understand slobs....this never works.
They had two small cars.....selling them both to buy one larger car, or even renting a passenger van or SUV for the duration of the vacation would be options that coherent people might consider.
