<p>i’m so glad i spent my money on… a people to people trip to australia for my child. he left as a child and came back as a young man. his manners and ways of interacting with peers and adults became much more mature. he learned to budget his money and wash his own clothes. i have seen an amazing difference before and after. i know PTP isn’t a ‘competitive’ program and that colleges probobly care less about it but this is an instance where i feel we all got our money’s worth and more</p>
<p>kayakmom,
That’s fantastic, what a great experience for your son! That’s what those programs are all about!</p>
