[quote=Anonymous] :lol: I get it OP. You want to hang on to your kid and the kid wants to make the most of the summer before college. Other parents feel the same too. In fact, think about it, the friend's family also probably want to spend time with their kid but knows that the kid will beetch and moan if they have to spend time with family. That is the reason they are inviting the kid's friend (your DD) so that their kid is not bored. I also agree with another PP that someone else turned down the invite and your kid is the last minute fill in - but that is not relevant. Ok. There is no way you can stop your kid without them thinking you are mean. Your kid is bored at home, doesn't want to spend more time with you and wants to go. No point in stopping her and then having a surly teen at hand. So have a sit down, show her this thread, tell her you are letting her go but then once she is back the family will be doing xyz together before she goes to college. . [/quote]
