[quote=Anonymous]My kid did. Went to a country where one of the friends has family, and then the group of friends traveled around independently. They had a ball and as far as we can tell were pretty responsible and mature. I can understand wanting your kid to wait until they’ve had the experience of being independent in college before taking a trip like this. For my particular kid I wanted them to have a jolt of independence and growing up before they went to college. The risks of independent European travel for 18 year olds are pretty low in most countries. However, the risk of Freshman year flailing and failure is real. I wanted my kid to experience total freedom when they didn’t also have to take an Econ exam in the morning. We’ll see how that works out![/quote]
