Ds 15, has applied to do his work exp at Westminster. He was very excited this morning to get an offer
Whilst I do whole heartedly support his independent attempts it does cause me a few problems, none insurmountable, however....we live abroad and will need to change flights (no prob easy done), we will need to stay in London (no prob already on it via mumsnet suggestion in UK travel), will need to sort transport from Leeds (no prob waiting for some MN help) but what does he wear? Will I need to buy a suit for him? Also although he flies internationally by himself he has only ever been to London once, years ago and doesnt get the chance to travel independently here so I am a bit worried about him getting around. Yes of course I know kids of 11 travel daily but this would be a huge first and maybe too much on his first day, aibu to think I could go with him and leave him by himself when we exit the tube station? Also does anybody have any idea if it the work exp will consist of more than envelope stuffing? tia.
