[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're all considering having a 16 year old live by himself for the summer?[/quote] His parents are. [/quote] THIS!!! Everyone is putting this on the OP but it is not her kid and she didn’t make the decision to have her 16 year old apply for an internship in another city. The kids parents made that decision without considering housing options before they did it. It is beyond obnoxious to assume that a family member will take in their child for an entire summer without consulting them before they applied. I would be more resentful of the kids parents for ever having the audacity to expect someone else to take in their kid. This is a huge boundaries issue. This is not life or death. This is simply poor planning on the part of the kids parents. Remember the saying, “poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.”[/quote]
