[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you’re going to spring for the four seasons for both of them, you gotta let her live and learn. And I don’t mean get mugged. I mean land in a corner of the city that isn’t super safe so that she learns how to protect herself, her belongings, her friend, how to stay alert, etc etc. I do believe she will be fine. And I do understand your worry. I did at the time when mine was 18 too. Now well into early twenties and she’s more certain on how she likes to travel and I’m more confident in her judgment. It’s a growth process for both of you. [/quote]

I offered to pay a little more to make up the difference and find somewhere else but they are not interested in looking. I feel bad about the situation bc I think it will really impact their experience and the safety worries are very real. They are just not aware in a concrete way. I really hope nothing happens to them but I will worry.[/quote]

It sounds like you have done all you can do, and you will have to learn to deal with your anxiety on your own. I know it's hard but it's a fact of life. And tbh, this isn't even that bad compared to the risks some 18 year olds take.[/quote]
