[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think 18 is a magical age at which you get to do whatever you want, especially while still in HS and living at home.

Not sure what you do, OP, but I would be furious too.  And not just at lack of control - at the demonstrated lack of maturity and courtesy.[/quote]

This.  People are acting like this is a college kid, instead of a high schooler who's obviously counting on Mom & Dad to go buy his school supplies so he'll be ready for Day One.  He's legally an adult, but he's still a kid in reality.[/quote]

He's 18. He turned 18 the end of July. That's the age of a student the summer before going to college, and he's doing things I would expect a kid to do the summer before college. Not only because it's the summer between high school and college, but also because he's 18! He should be making his own decisions and plans.

He's mature enough to plan and pay for his own travel. I'm betting he's got the school supplies handled.[/quote]
