[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like a wonderful experience, OP. Just want to challenge (not hostilely, just for discussion's sake) this seemingly unanimous declaration that his personal life is none of your business. I think as long as someone is living under your roof and is not paying rent, there is no *right* to privacy, or *right* to act in ways that you the parent don't approve of. Of course it's not a good idea to be a nosey mom, and if it were me, I would allow a lot of freedom (including this trip), but I'm just saying that it's not a RIGHT, but a privilege, and ultimately, it IS our business if we choose for it to be. We're still raising a kid, and providing the kid with freebees. When they are out on their own, making their own money, doing their own laundry, etc…then they are finally adults and have earned their freedom to act however they want without threat of parental repercussions.
