[quote=Anonymous]Kid dependent but ultimately I would probably let them go. As a reference, when DD was 18 (so a little bit older, but not that much older) she got on a plane and flew halfway across the country to spend three weeks with three other 18-year-olds she met who were taking gap year at same college and they had a fantastic set of camping/hiking/road-tripping adventures together. Sure I was somewhat nervous about the situation but it was a really fantastic step into independence and I think having those incremental experiences while they are still home and checking in with you can be really instructive. So if you generally feel good about this group of people, your kid is connected with that sounds like it would be a really fun and satisfying experience for them. [/quote]
