[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are we really arguing about the principle that this OP abound ask the parents first?

Maybe I would say no. But there would be hell to pay caused by this OP. Hopefully her perspective has broadened just a little bit [/quote]

This is op again. You need help, lady.

I dont even know most of teen 15s friends parents. They are perfectly capable of speaking to their own parents for permission and to relay details.
 
Now that I think of it, younger dc 11 has had a friend ask him directly if he could go along on a trip and I had to say no. That parent and I do know each other well but I wasn't upset that she didn't ask me first.  Dc was disappointed,  and he has very rigid personality caused by a developmental disorder which makes disappointment very difficult for him. But he dealt with it .

This is part of growing up. I feel very sorry for your sheltered children.  Missing out on the highs and lows, the temptation and seeing better off than and worse off than. Having to hear  "no."

"There would be hell to pay " 
Bit dramatic there.[/quote]

Any decent parent would want to know, meet or talk to another parent prior to a vacation.  Bizarre. [/quote]
