FFS the lad is an adult . He can go on holiday wherever and whenever he wants
Growler is being totally overprotective here and should leave him to it. I went to Paris (alone) aged 15 and then cycled back to Cherbourg. All paid out of my paper round. Can't believe my parents let me go tbqh and I did end up in hospital (malnutrition ) but I had paid for insurance so that was fine.
If you go on holiday alone at that age you can meet other people and take em or leave em. Fab
OK, ok ok, keep yu piggin ginger beard on ffs!
I think the advice from BM and UM regarding an activity holiday is good, and I shall put it to him.
I just don't want him being 'stranded' over there somewhere, all on his jacksy and fedup, wishing he could come home after having paid a fair amount of dosh.
I'm NOT being over protective either you shrimp headed termite.
