no where near as crazy as nassau/bahamas

you are the mom...........if the girls are still under your "rule" then you call the shots.

my opinion and bear in mind that my son is now in his mid 20s ......................if my son came to me as a teen (17 or 18) and wanted to do moped/scooter......i'd redirect him to something else.

my reasoning for denying him moped access
-sand on roads causing some skidding
-unfamiliar roads
-confused tourists behind the wheel of other vehicles
-our health insurance is NOT VALID in aruba.

that's me.
and as my son would probably say, i was an overbearing helicopter mom when he was in high school.

i am proud of it. my badge of courage!
