[quote=Anonymous]If my son had considerable experience being away from home for long stretches (like a month at sleeapaway camp) and was very adventurous and confident I would probably say yes provided this was a very good friend, I knew the parent very well and we had a plan for checking in. This doesn’t describe my 13 year old though so I would have to say no. My own son has only been away for 1 week at a time and has never traveled outside N America. He’s just really not all that independent. I actually know someone who sent their 13 yo DD to China solo to spend a summer with family. It sounded crazy at the time but she had a wonderful time and the trip was a complete success. But she spoke the language and they were her relatives. [/quote]
