Should two 12-year-old girls be allowed to go to Maroon Five concert w/o adult and be in "pit"?

12 is too young.

Nope. Another lenient parent here. 12's too young.

Another no. I got groped at those and I'm not even great looking. I got groped walking in crowds in Georgetown at night, walking on crowded sidewalks between bars. Crowd and alcohol just heighten the danger.

Absolutely not. No way. Out of the question.

I second this idea.

No way, and we take our kids to music concerts regularly.

If you could get another general admission ticket and go with them, that would be okay.

I am a super lenient parent but 12 is WAY too young and those pits get out of control. I was in the pit at a freaking WALLFLOWERS concert 100 years ago and I was groped and propositioned like crazy. It was gross.

Wallflowers, y'all.

I am a very free range parent, and don't see being groped in a crowd as some horrible tragic event that will traumatize a girl for life, but I also can't see myself allowing it until 14.

I'd be nervous but probably even the creepiest guys would not grope 12 year olds.


Are you kidding? Talk about naive.

No, OP, I wouldn't do it. I'm not super overprotective, but I'd say no to this.

So you'd be okay with some stranger putting his hands on your 14 year old because he's sexually turned on by her and feels he has the right to violate her personal space for just a few seconds???

Unseated floor tickets? No way. Regular seats, and a couple years older? Sure.
