Would you let you recently graduated high schooler, who just turned 18, go on a trip to Aruba with three guy friends? To an all inclusive including alcohol? Assume he is a good kid with good grades and hasn’t really gotten in trouble before.
TIA |

| Not a chance. This is your time to be a parent not a friend. Sad you even asked this question. |

| Who's paying, and in which US subculture do 4 recent high school graduates want to go to Aruba in July? |

| Aruba is a safe country, safer than the United States. One blonde girl died years ago. I would rather send my kid to Aruba than a night out in DC or Paris or London. |

| 18 is an adult. If he can pay his way, then it's not my decision. |

| Aruba is a safe country and I have vacationed there many times with my wife and kids. But I recently told my daughter no to any Caribbean post-high school graduation trip. They just don’t know what they don’t know. I would be comfortable with some places in Europe. |

She didn’t just die. She was murdered by a local wealthy teen and the police did hardly anything to help and there was a massive coverup. |

I'm surprised by the answers. Aruba is completely safe, your son is an adult.
We live in a country where kids are murdered regularly in school and people think Aruba is unsafe? It's either funny or pathetic. |
