[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You East Coast people are very relaxed.
I would be furious.  My kid while still living under my roof, is expected to follow the rules and ask permission for this.

I would call the girl's parents to ask details.  The may not know he is staying.

I would also consider telling him to come home as originally planned.

Are you still paying his room and board?  Are you paying for college next year?  If so, you still make the rules.
He should have taken the money from his summer job and saved for some college expenses.

Op said that she knew that the girl's parents do not provide much, if any, supervision.  She allowed her responsible 18 year old son to go to a foreign country under his own supervision.  She doesn't mention if her son was sending Op updates about his trip - where he was going, who he was staying with, what he was doing. Op just mentions that her son texted her to let her know that he would be back 6 days later than initially planned.[/quote]
