Answer 1

im only 13 years old and i have been going to six flags without parents for about two years now.  so i would say you should let him and his friends go.

Yes, I know it's a little different.. but let him have some fun!

Just tell him to call every now & then.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Uh . . . yes; he's a young man; he needs some freedom - cut the umbilical cord, there, ma!

Answer 10

The drive and park shouldn't be an issue - the hotel is the only wild card in the equation. I'd contact some of the larger chain's customer service lines to see what their under-18 policy is. If you can find a major chain that will rent a room to a 17yo, chances are they'll have one near a major attraction like Six Flags.

Answer 11

My first thought was an immediate yes until I read about the 5 hour drive.  What kind of car will he be traveling in?  Is everyone else the same age?  Put a group of teenagers in a car together and common sense goes out the window.  I wouldn't be worried about the 6 flags part of it, or even the hotel, but I would be concerned with their safety driving (unless he's driving a tank:-)
