[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question: my son and his group of friends are all couples that have been dating a long time (6 couples with 2-4 yrs relationships for all). They want to get a beach house during "beach week" together as couples.  My husband and I are both from NOVA and we both went to beach week 30 yrs ago (yikes! saying that hurts a little, lol!) These guys are wanting to go down separately (not the same week or even the same beach location) as the rest of their high school.  I am really struggling with this.  I know they all have sex anyway, but this feels like a bridge too far--sending them off on a couples retreat basically.  All the other parents in the group seem to be fine with this and I am frankly left scratching my head.  I would be more apt to consider the co-ed situation if they were all just a platonic group of friends, but this is different.  Looking for other parent input to determine if I am overreacting. (Please be gentle)[/quote]

I wouldn't be comfortable with this either. 
Sex aside, I would want my kid socializing with the rest of the school.  I'm not at all a fan of romantic partnerships that spend all their time together in high school (or even college). These years are better spent investing in a larger variety of people.  Kids have their entire lives (i.e. marriage) to spend 95% of their time with one person.
