[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question: my son and his group of friends are all couples that have been dating a long time (6 couples with 2-4 yrs relationships for all). They want to get a beach house during "beach week" together as couples.  My husband and I are both from NOVA and we both went to beach week 30 yrs ago (yikes! saying that hurts a little, lol!) These guys are wanting to go down separately (not the same week or even the same beach location) as the rest of their high school.  I am really struggling with this.  I know they all have sex anyway, but this feels like a bridge too far--sending them off on a couples retreat basically.  All the other parents in the group seem to be fine with this and I am frankly left scratching my head.  I would be more apt to consider the co-ed situation if they were all just a platonic group of friends, but this is different.  Looking for other parent input to determine if I am overreacting. (Please be gentle)[/quote]

You're not overreacting. This would be a no for me. They're still in high school living under my roof, not in their 20s living independently on their own. I'm shocked that all the parents are fine with this.[/quote]

Me too. The point of beach week is to have one last hurrah with friends, not a couples retreat during a different week. Maybe all the other parents are waiting for someone else to speak up?[/quote]
Honestly I would be way more concerned from a safety and doing something stupid standpoint with my kid doing the last hurrah with friends trip than this one. It’s a group of 17-18 year olds that have been friends and dating each other for years. They are already having sex. I don’t understand why it’s better to have a last hurrah with friends where it is more likely people are getting completely hammered and hooking up with randoms. [/quote]
