[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a young tween I went alone to visit my brother in college, several states away. My brother knew Mom & Dad would kill him if anything happened to me. He was very protective of me. I saw some things that were not age appropriate, that he couldn't help .. but the greater picture was the trip helped keep the bond with my brother. I'm a parent now and YES, I would strongly encourage a similar trip for a sibling (depending), but also I would say NO to a HS student visiting college friends. No need. No deep emotional need.[/quote] I visited my older siblings in college as a teen and it was a wonderful experience. They were very protective of me and their roommates were also very well behaved. As mentioned, much depends on the sibling and the expectations of the parents.[/quote]
