  • Exactly. The kid is more or less 16, I went away myself around that age. Sounds great. Good on her. I read an interview with her and it was very switched on, talked about real risks to young adults.

  • To be honest the only error Alsopp has made is mentioning it in social media. If she'd kept her mouth shut her son would have had a great trip with no problems. FYI I would happily let my 15yo do a similar trip

  • With you on that. I did it, i would let my kids do it.
    Most of the twats complaining would probably (i assume...) let their kids drive cars at age 17 (as would i), which i suspect is a far more risky experience

  • FYI I would happily let my 15yo do a similar trip

    Tbf I’d happily let my 7-yr old do it. But it’s been a long summer holiday and he’s really getting on my tits by now.
