[quote=Anonymous]Fifth grade is too young. Son went with school on international trip in 7th and had horrible home-sickness. Tour guide (landon) was poor. He clearly just wanted a free trip to his homeland and actually stayed there to visit relatives and sent kids back unescorted (of course this was not revealed at time of planning). Kids allowed to drink all the cola they wanted on plane and started acting out. Teachers checked out. Kids couldn't figure out money exchange rates and were taken advantage of. And no parents at all allowed as chaperones. Bad idea at fifth grade, especially with the world in turmoil.[/quote]
