[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just got into a disagreement with my HS senior because for the....umpteenth time, I said no to him going to Beach Week.[b] He tried to use the fact that a family friend of ours is letting their son go to Beach Week[/b], as if that should mean we should do the same for him. My first prompt to him was "Who's he going with?" to which he couldn't answer. But it just boggles my mind that parents PAY MONEY to leave their 17 or 18-year-old kid alone in a house or hotel room with a bunch of other people that same age for a WEEK, and think it's a good idea? How or why? I obviously am under no illusions that teens can't or won't try to find ways to have drugs, sex or drink, by why PAY for them to do so with a free pass? That's insane to me. He's trying to make me feel like I'm the bad guy, but what am I missing? Why is sending your senior to Beach Week a good idea??[/quote] Have you asked the family friend?[/quote]
