[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. She is our only child.  She has lived abroad for 2 semesters once in 8th grade and 1 last year. The boy spends summers abroad. I want to say no because I feel it is being very liberal as a parent. On the other hand they are extremely mature. It is not a full family vacation as my husband is not going. The kids have separate rooms. I also trust them. [/quote]

Honestly, you’ve answered your own question. You think he’s a nice kid. He and your daughter are good friends. You understand they won’t have time to see  other much, and what that means to your daughter. They are mature. You trust them.

Maybe it would be considered “liberal parenting.” But so what? What does that even mean these days? It’s not like you booked them the honeymoon suite at the Ritz, complete with basket of s*x toys and a weed pen. I think you’re taking a thoughtful approach. I assume his parents are doing the same. As long as you weren’t seeing this as family-only or mom/daughter time, it could end up making your relationship with your DD stronger.

(Yes, I have HS kids.)[/quote]
