[quote=Anonymous]Yes. I might see if I could come over for part of the trip, too. Not because I don't trust my DS, but because I love travelling in Asia. Presumably you know the family well, and don't have concerns about the mother and your son's friend. I didn't let my 13 yr old go to FL with his friend over spring break because I didn't know the parents AT ALL. But I did send him to Germany last year for a week with other friends. It really just boils down to knowing your child, his comfort level, etc. Make sure he's well prepared for all eventualities, and then realize something will come up that you didn't prep for. It will be a great learning experience for him. China is an amazing country, and hardly third world. Clearly some of these PPs have never set foot in Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, Shenzhen or Guangzhou. This is not a third world country--but it IS different from the US.[/quote]
