DD16 wants to go to Leeds festival this summer although I'm not sure. It's her 17th at the beginning of August and she's wanting the ticket as her present but still comes with a hefty price of £220. I just don't know how safe these festivals are with the type of stuff that goes on such as drugs, etc. DD would be going with a big group of friends all between 17/18 about 10 of them so she won't be alone. WWYD? She has been practically begging me since last year and assured me that she will be responsible but thes the type of girl that stays out all night partying so I'm not sure how far the trust goes with her. She's sensible but I think a festival for 5 days especially one as big and potentially dangerous is questionable. Has anyone had their DD/DS son attending? What are the pros and cons of this? I think being outdoors that long would be beneficial for her but I don't really know what to do especially with the price.
