[quote=Anonymous]I couldn't agree more with the helicopter parenting statement. And as someone else pointed out, what happens at the beach is also happening at home. If you have raised your kid with open lines of communication and are not a strict, overprotective parent who monitors your child's every move, then a trip to the beach at 18 is going to be a wonderful, lifelong memory not a nightmare. These same children are eligible to join the military and they can't go to the beach for a week with their friends? Sad, so sad. These same kids are the ones who went crazy in college (after having to keep it together and be the perfect kid in high school), and we all know someone who failed out or had a drinking problem in college because their parents were so strict and overbearing in high school. Golf trip with dad while your friends are at the beach? Chaperones for an 18 year old? COME ON people![/quote]
