[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your DC is not ready for this trip. It’s not reasonable or even viable for a host family or a chaperone to remind him to take medicine. If he can’t, via an alarm, then he’s not ready for this. [/quote] There's some leeway there. If I were a host family, I wouldn't mind at all dealing with his meds. One of my kids was on Adderall for years, and my other kid has daily medication for her auto-immune disease. I've sent my kid to birthday parties where the host immediately asked "Epipen? Allergies?" because they were doctors or teachers and were used to dealing with that stuff. Not all parents are going to be clueless. OP just needs to ask the organizers and go from there. [/quote]
