[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't see any reason not to let him go unless he's a wild kid who never follows directions and will think it's funny to run off and hide or something. [/quote] No, not at all. He's a good kid with a strong conscience and is a rule-follower. When I think about this, my only big concern is the private company running the trip. How do I trust my kid to strangers? What if one of them is *inappropriate* with my son? I don't think he's old enough to put into place the procedures we've talked about - running away, screaming for help, etc. I'm generally a "you can't live in fear of the crazy stuff happening (ie: kidnappings, etc.)" type person, but someone touching my kid is not a crazy "out of the world" impossible thing. Blargh, this is hard.[/quote]
