Spring Break: Mom vs Teen

Parents and teenagers take sides on sending children on spring break.

We posted Spring Break Confessions: Part 1, sparking a lot of controversy over trusting our teens. Eyez2cwith says: "No way would I allow my teen to go off alone on a week with friends. Not that I don't trust her, I don't trust others. If my child wants spring break, they go with me, and get some alone time, but not enough that I have to worry about them. Of course, they are taught what is acceptable public behavior and what isn't. Common sense is TAUGHT... not inherited!"

Thatkid disagrees: "Uh, did the author of this just realize that kids go to spring break for the sex, drugs, and drinking? Because then the author has probably been sheltered their entire life. The point is we are kids and want to be kids, you [are] putting loads of schoolwork and stressing us kids out are what turns us to doing stuff like this. The secret to getting kids to stop doing drugs ... stop stressing us out!"
