I say go on the trips when they ask!

Here's the way I look at it, in just a few years they'll be in college where you'll only get to see them for a few days at time during their breaks. Mine hasn't been home for a summer since his freshmen year because she's always done internships during the summers. She'll graduate college in a few weeks, be back home for about a week before she goes on a grad trip with friends, and come back for about 2 weeks before she preps to move to another state for her job that starts mid-June.

I set limits. Can we go to Starbucks? Sure! But we're only getting tea this time (fewer calories & cheaper). Can we go to Sephora? Sure, but be sure to bring your money in case you want anything. Can we go browse Target? Absolutely but we will not be leaving with another freaking Tree Hut product unless it is purchased with your own money. Can we go to Barnes & Nobel? Yep, and you may pick out 2 books. [/quote]
