[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for all the responses.  It is overwhelmingly NO, which is what I hoped and expected.

I am very surprised that two of the kids who were allowed to go on this trip (unchaperoned) are both girls, but the boys' parents are in the NO camp.  Now there is discussion about adults chaperoning.  My son keeps calling me a helicopter mom.  I guess that may be true, but it's all relative.  We will probably let them go if there are adults there.

For what it's worth, my son is a late bloomer.  These kids don't drink or use drugs.  We have been hosting this same group of kids in our home for years and they are more on the nerdy side.  They mostly play games and watch movies and there is no romantic involvement between the boys and girls.  They really are a nice bunch of kids...I'm just not thrilled that the girls' parents have different parenting styles than mine.  I know some of you are snickering and thinking I am blind, but I really don't think that is the case.

Thanks again.[/quote]
