I assumed they were okay for my daughter to stay with because they were personal friends and/or family members of the Alumnae we did know. The girls who invited her to stay with them lived in the dorms on campus, not some random seedy apartment on the wrong side of the tracks. Most high school seniors have already turned 18 by the spring of their senior year. Hopefully by the time our children are 18, they are set to make responsible decisions all on their own, they are adults after all.
As far as staying with girls she met on Facebook, essentially, that is exactly how she found her roommate that she will be living with next year. (Ole Miss's housing website links to Facebook so the kids can check out potential roommates). I am assuming her roommate is okay.... (she looks adorable on Facebook)
I'm sorry I made your organs churn, maybe by the time you have children of your own, you will understand that 18 year olds ARE adults capable of attending a party on their own with out parental supervision.
I apologize for sharpening my claws here..... I asked for advice on how PNM's should act prior to recruitment on a campus known for being a party school, I did not ask for parenting advice from someone who has yet to raise a child.
