Word to the wise: do not EVER put your kid on a bus cross country. Baaaad idea. Bad. Very bad. <br /><br />My mother decided after that *cough* life experience, that she would rather pay the extra $300 for me to ride a plane. Hence the plane ride back when I was 19. :-)Beth S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16817097767820828893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-19407898353550519612011-12-28T18:12:46.575-07:002011-12-28T18:12:46.575-07:00I think I was 20 as well!

Come to think of it, I'm not sure she has ever flown entirely alone! It's a good kind of hard seeing your kids grow up and become independent young adults, whether it's their first flight or when they get behind the wheel of a car for the first time.Denise S.http://fitfocusedblessed.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-1411580406995962812011-12-28T10:27:17.075-07:002011-12-28T10:27:17.075-07:00I was 23 when I took my first flight.

I thought I knew all there was about planes after that flight, so imagine my reaction when my next flight was a sardine can and we had to walk outside to get on the plane...huh?<br /> Those were the days when you could smoke on the plane..I always laugh when I think of that. and they had movies on every flight. (every flight I took)<br /> My youngest daughter was 14 when she flew alone. I had taken the same flight 2 weeks prior so I pretty much drew her a diagram of the airport when she would change flights. That was the scariest part for me (and her I think). I imagined her lost in the airport, and we know how big they are. We took the flight home together and I was much happier doing it that way.Ronaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18352294062281149400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-42338903055643477412011-12-28T10:25:20.489-07:002011-12-28T10:25:20.489-07:00I suppose I'm not a cryer.

I put them on, there were no layovers, the person on the other end picked them up. For them it was an exciting adventure. For me it was a great opportunity to show them I believed in them - even that young. "Most kids couldn't do this but you're so well behaved, such a good kid that I'm not worried about you at all". Of course I worried. But I liked building my relationship with my kids. Now as they're much older, they're strong, independent kids who aren't anxious or fearful. They know - you've got this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-41058578898252282832011-12-28T09:42:20.832-07:002011-12-28T09:42:20.832-07:00I sent my 13 year old daughter from Phoenix to Sal...I sent my 13 year old daughter from Phoenix to Salt Lake last summer.

But, other than the panic attack I had leaving DIA to fly across the world, it was the best thing I ever did for myself to conquer that fear and finally feel like a big girl in my mid 30's.

It was probably 1996 when my sis moved to WI and I didn't want to drive to Milwaukee and it was pretty cheap to fly to Chicago. I would have been 23. <br /><br />But I can relate to the general idea of being sad as our kids take those tiny steps towards adulthood. My ten year old finally confessed yesterday to no longer believing in Santa. While I know I got more years out of him than most, I was sad.

We let our oldest go on a trip with his girlfriend his Senior year to visit her Aunt in Arizona, he was 17. I was a basket case!! Her mom was all chill and not worried whatsoever. Of course, she already had some experience in which she let her oldest take a road trip <br />from Indiana to California!! Crazy!! I stayed until they took off, and cried. I made him call as soon as they <br />landed and every other day they were away. And if he was late calling I started to worry...pacing, trying to be patient and positive..very hard. <br />Don't think I will ever let my 17 year go off alone. She gets to wrapped up in her moments unaware of what's around her...ya nieve :/<br />My 14 year old is wise beyond her years..but the jury is out, we will see what comes up ;)<br />It's so hard to let go when you've focused your whole self on them...Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13626626549480679154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-4781774338171713762011-12-27T20:17:20.990-07:002011-12-27T20:17:20.990-07:00I was 14 the first time I flew by myself: Spokane...I was 14 the first time I flew by myself: Spokane,WA to Salt Lake City to Ontario, CA. Or it was *supposed* to be that way. I got to SLC and found that my connecting flight had been cancelled. I managed to arrange a flight to Los Angeles, CA (in first class!!) and somehow got word to my parents who were at the Ontario airport. It was a bit of a clusterf*ck, and of course in the days before cell phones. Fortunately, I was a pretty independent and resourceful kid who managed to make it work without freaking out. <br /><br />Not sure I will EVER let my children do that.

I was told to get off the plane in Vancouver, find out what gate the other flight was coming in at, and wait there. The world was a safer place then.
