[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm confused as to how a 7-hour drive is such a big deal for a 25-yr old. Leave the house at 7am, stop for a lunch break, and arrive well before dark. What is dangerous about this?

My kids regularly made drives much longer than this during college by themselves. We're talking about a 25 yr old adult.

Op cares about her daughter. [/quote]

And doesn’t think her capable of driving the equivalent of Maryland to the outer banks? You know people 5-6 years younger than OPs daughter can fight in wars, right? [/quote]

Sure, but you know everyone is different right? [/quote]

What evidence did OP give that her daughter is “different”? OPs daughter has planned to drive to visit her boyfriend for the weekend. Seems like a normal thing for a 25 year old to do. OP is for unknown reasons trying to change her daughter’s plans to fly instead, despite maybe saving her 1-2 hours max of travel time and leaving her without a car for the weekend. And her daughter isn’t even asking for Op to do this, or mentioning that she wished she could fly instead. Guys maybe OPs daughter just wants to freaking drive because it’s going to take the same amount of time and she likes to drive and hates airports. Like- can’t we just leave this chick alone to live her life [/quote]
