So next year, as an (ahem) adult, all bets will be off then? Unless, of course, she's still chained to the radiator.JOGAMIGMOG said:nobody can eat fifty eggs said:Yeah until she's 31.johnny on the spot said:Ah, I see. Radiator it is then.
Lol. She actually will still be 17. The rules state you can go as a 17 yr old providing you have a letter of authority as a disclaimer from your parent who must sign it in the presence of the travel agent at the time of booking. I won't be signing anything.

Is this internet grooming?

The eldest Mrs This! daughter is 16 at the mo and plotting her festivals for the summer. Wakestock and Leeds I think and the thought of it terrifies me!
One of her mate's elder brother is taking a villa in ibiza for the summer and she now wants to go there for a "few weeks" after GCSE's... nooooooooo!!
Mrs This! is a little more laissez faire than I so as the gals are hers I just need to try and ignore the unbearable urge to mash any vile teen boys that venture within a hundred yards of This! towers - which is difficult when we always have a house full.
(My beautiful innocent boys have a few years to go yet before they are marauding round chasing gals and I am sure will be the utmost gentlemen in any case so nothing to worry about there...)
Whilst I suppose she'll be up to all sorts no matter where she goes on holiday, the 18-30 lot are vile. (no, of course an old ex didn't come back having shagged the rep with NSU about 20 years ago - schlaaaaaags!)

If she's got a bit of self respect she'll just go and have a top time and if she cops off, well that's life and you can't protect her all your life.
Don't believe everything you read about 18-30's. I went on a few in my late teens and the good thing was there would be a group of 30 odd stuck together for the week and if you like, looking out for each other too.
Stop being a tight sod and send her on her way with a few boxes of condoms, a packet of antibiotics and 14 morning after pills as a treat.
