* In [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfTudor Tudor]]-era England, this was a main reason why the kings' and queens' children didn't live with their parents, but in their own households in the country. In a time when infant mortality was high – as, for example, UsefulNotes/HenryVIII and UsefulNotes/CatherineOfAragon knew all too well – every precaution was taken to ensure that the heirs to the throne would survive. This included sending them away from disease-ridden London to grow up in cleaner, healthier air.

She died just a few days after they arrived.

* A 1899/1900 Polish novel ''Ludzie bezdomni'' offers a subversion.

* A curious inversion happens in an {{urban legend}} about a group of children who all fell ill from staying in a holiday resort. The story posited that the kids, having grown up in a heavily polluted industrialized region, were so unused to "healthy country air" that they developed an allergic reaction to it. The whole purpose of the tale seems to be to make fun at the expense of the region, whichever it happens to be in a given telling.
