Up to no good?

My eldest (16) goes to boarding school, and has recently found out what boys really are! As a parent I can tell the school not to let her out to 'go party', however I've always thought you should let your children find things out for themselves. I really don't want her getting hurt or into trouble. Any advice?

It sounds very normal. You need to start practicing relationships, talking to opposite sex, flirting etc etc. you can't reach 18 and just know how it works. She will be fine. I'm sure her school keep an eye on what's happening to make sure it's within normal parenting boundaries. My teens are regularly out partying and they seem to be doing just fine.
