If we went clubbing in Ibiza, would our 2 sons 14 & 15 be ok in hotel room, or could we get into trouble!?

Question

for 1 night only......maybe 2

Answer 1

just so you know, they have hormones rageing through their bodies and women in skirts smaller then my belt. Make your own conclusions :)

Answer 2

I doubt they'd be OK.  Do you trust them?  Goodness knows what they would get up to.  I don't know what the legal age is for leaving children alone, but I don't think is is very responsible when they are still quite young. If you have them on holiday with you why would you want to leave them alone - you don't sound like much of a family.  If you want that sort of trip I think you should go just the two of you and leave your boys with a family member back home.

Just my opinion - you did ask.

Answer 3

If your sons are mature and can be trusted to stay alone -- it may not be bad for one evening.    If you wouldn't leave them home alone at your house -- then I'd say no.

My thoughts are -- if it's a family vacation then you should do family things the whole time (unless you have appropriate childcare).  But that's just my opinion.   Things can happen when you least expect them to.

Answer 4

as long as your children are over 13yrs old they do not have to be left with a childminder so even if your 14 yr old was younger, as long as your 15yr old was there it would be ok

Answer 5

Depends on the trust you have in your sons are they mature enough to stay alone themselves.

My 14 year old daughter is so grown up and mature that she sometimes looks after my 9 year old.

Answer 6

think you may get in trouble, depends if they were ok with it and who knew they werent with an adult

Answer 7

It may very well be that your two sons are perfectly trustworthy, responsible young men but, as a person who was employed successively as a Child Welfare Caseworker, Casework supervisor, and Chief State Training officer before leaving to study law and who then practiced trial law for twenty years, I would say that its not a wise idea.

If, God forbid, by some mischance, anything untoward should happen can you imagine how it would sound in court when you testified on oath that you were out drinking and clubbing at the time of the occurrence?

Answer 8

I think you should take them clubbing with you, or let them go clubbing alone. Ibiza is a pretty save place for kids.

Answer 10
