[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My money is on the two girls being really, really disappointed that instead of this feeling like a special, adult trip, it felt like they were just children in this family, not that anything truly inappropriate happened.[/quote]

How is it ever appropriate to bring non-students on a school field trip?  If the students knew ahead of time, before signing up and paying, that they would have to take this trip with little children then MAYBE it would be a fair point.

I'd be pissed if I was the student, too.  Whether I had to babysit or not, I wouldn't want to pay for a school trip and feel like I'm tagging along on someone else's family vacation.[/quote]

Is it an actual school field trip if it was just 3 girls and a set of parents with no school employees?

It sounds more like a case where the kids wanted to go to a conference/competition/meet and the school was not going so a parent volunteered to take them.

Like a couple of theater kids wanting to go to the International Thespian Festival, the drama club is not actually attending but Larla's mom offers to fly out with them so they can attend as DCUM High School's unofficial "representatives".

Is it something like that OP?

Because I have never heard of a school trip that does not include a paid staff member attending.[/quote]
