| My little brother had 8 of his friends go to Cancun (at the end of July for some bizarre reason). My dad and another couple chaperoned. My brother had an absolute great time, my dad had a great time, and they still talk about it pretty frequently. The four kids who had never drank while in HS were the drunkest ones on the trip for the duration.
It's a little bit different, but I went on a trip to Vegas with 10 of my fraternity pledge brothers 2 days after college graduation, and it was absolutely one of the best memories of college for me.
I don't think it's that big of deal to begin with but I think there is definitely wiggle room on this, something to get your child to spend time with their friends for one last significant memory. Whether that's another trip or something else, that can avoid a lot of the concerns you might have about this particular "senior week". |
