OBE Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 My first born is female, fourteen years old and she's of to Benidorm with here best mate from school for a fortnight, yeh! her mate's parent's are going also. My daughter's mate's Maw-n-Paw laid it on thick, explaining that last years holiday was a disaster because their daughter morphed into a kinda female Kevin from Harry Enfield. This is the first time in fourteen years that she'll be away for more than three consecutive days, Jesus Christ! I thought me worrying about females was well and truly over. Mobile phones topped up, she's got plenty cash, factor 35 is packed and I've removed the heavy eyeliner from her make-up bag, I know, I know she'll go buy another one. What could possibly go wrong eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she's a total rocket, expect her to come back after doing all sorts of stuff she maybe wouldn't over here. I am off to Benidorm today with my daughter. Luckily I wont have these trouble's that you are having for another 12 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, When my eldest was 15 we took her and 2 of her mates with us to Mallorca. We felt just as much responsibility for the other 2. However, you have to trust them and give them some rope....with appropriate checks and balances in place. They were fine, as far as I was aware.

Glamorgan Jambo Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 It's the other girls parents you need to trust. This is the key point.

blondejamtart Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Having just returned from Turkey with 17-year-old daughter and her best friend, all I can say is it's quite an experience! It is a big responsibility taking someone else's child away on holiday and you've got to be able to trust both your child and the parents concerned. But then again, I've always believed it does no good whatsoever to wrap your kids up in cotton wool - they've got to get out there on their own in the big bad world at some point in their lives, after all! Mind you, while daughter's friend behaved herself, I did to start to worry a wee bit that I might be coming back home with a Turkish son-in-law!Trust me, 17-year-old girls and Turkish barmen/dancers are quite a combination!

ellie0028 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 My 15 year old daughter have been away for almost 10 days to spain with her friend and mum and dad.. My daughter has had a great time,she has phoned every day but what has caused the most hassle is her friends mum. Moaned about everything and even took the huff with the kids,,infact even told my daughter she had to pay for her own meal last night,even though id giving the mother ?150 for food. I was raging at that cos the whole point of paying the money was not to be worrying about stuff like that I had also giving my daughter enough money to pay for things to do and get by with day to day stuff.. Ive been friends with the mum for years but I wont be allowing my daughter to go away with them again.. since typing this up my daughter has been on the phone because the mother wanted me to look for flights coming home at a later date (they are due home tomorrow) couldnt find any,not that I tried hard enough because my daughter told me she wants to come home and not stay longer lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
