Title: G8 Protests
Post by: bobAlike on June 11, 2013, 05:24:45 PM
My 17yo daughter is supposed to be in London the weekend with a friend. Staying at her friends apartment near London Bridge. Not sure if I should let her go because of the protests or am I just being over fatherly.

Any thoughts anybody?

Plenty of ways a 17 year old girl can get into trouble in a weekend in London irrespective of the protests.

Def do not use this as a reasons not to let her go, but do reinforce your point that you want her to avoid them.

I got an email today with protest info on from the Met, PM me if you would like the info

Problem is apartment is near financial district and she wants to go shopping Oxford St.etc..

Don't I know it.

I don't mind her going, she's been a few times before. I was just concerned about the protests and possible disruptions. I'll def advise her to leave balaclava at home.

I'm always surprised when it kicks off on a street so high up on the Monopoly board.
