Can I let my children go to Universal Orlando Resort by themselves?

Question

My two children(both 13) want to go to Universal Islands of Adventure with a friend whose 13. But they want to go by themselves. Are they allowed to go by themselves, because I think it would be okay?

Answer 1

I wouldn't let them go alone, but I'd let them maybe go around the park some by themselves as long as they're back at a certain point at a certain time.

Answer 2

I went to disneyworld by myself with a group of friends at 13, and I was fine. Just make sure their smart about not pulling out alot of money at once, be aware of their surroundings and don't make it obvious that they're alone. And bring cell phones!  

Answer 3

no, why would you even ask that?, they couldn't do anything by themselves, a parent should always be with them inside the park, it's just too big, and they might get lost and don't know what to do

Answer 4

yeah if their responsible then let them go!

Answer 5

Why in the world would you allow them to go alone? Seriously? NO WAY 13 is way to young. What if somethi8ng happened to them

Did you want them to get kidnapped? Some perv sees 3 young kids ALONE in a park, Come on

Answer 6

How far away from there are you?  If they're jumping a greyhound and traveling across country then no.  I would say it's a little young, but i don't live there so...

Answer 7

well there is no rules against it and as long as you trust that they won't get into trouble and they have no pre exsisting life threatening medical conditions that could possibily become a problem while there then yeah they should be just fine and i wouldn't worry about them.  

Answer 8

I'm not clear on what you mean.. going to the park or checking into a resort there.  They aren't going to be allowed to check into the resort on their own.  If they live in the area and are mature enough, you might drop  them off to go to the park alone, but I don't think it's a great idea because I think there's a lot of pedophiles in the area, maybe from anywhere in the world there, and you would want to watch for suspicious people..not that Universal is known for that.  The news has quieted down some now, but we would get rashes of certain kinds of crimes and pedophiles were one of them.  At the very least, you would want to check first with the park if they would be allowed in on their own.

Answer 9

It matters how they can handle it. If they have been into a park with you and if they have been pretty well behaved or if they have not been arguing with each other or have not been making stupid or strange choices that you'd have to talk them out of then it's up to you. If that is the case then let them go! Plz choose me!

Oh and also I went to Disney World and I was only ten and I walked all around Epcot, my parents didn't mind because they gave me a cell phone. But even if you didn't have one if you are meeting in a good place and if you feel comfortable with them alone then let them go, they have to grow up anyways, right?

Answer 10

No, firstly Universal will not allow the children to purchase tickets. Being under the age of 14 means they need some supervision. Personally, I am 19 and am petrified in the park on my own, let alone letting a 13 year old there. Its dangerous and pick pockets are often on the lurk for an easy target.  

Answer 11

No........unless you want to see your kids on a milk carton

Answer 12

If they act mature, and will not act like looneys, them sure let them go have fun!!!

Answer 13

No, they have rules and at that age they must be accompanied by an adult.
