Moms Talk: Do You Allow a Senior Trip?

Pull up a chair, grab some coffee and meet weekly to discuss what we care about.

West Bloomfield Patch invites you and your circle of friends to help build a community of support for mothers and families right here in West Bloomfield. Our council will meet as often as you would like — in person and right here online. Our Moms Council will take your questions, give advice and share solutions in person and online.

Moms, dads, grandparents and the diverse families who make up our community will have a new resource for questions about local neighborhood schools, the best pediatricians, 24-hour pharmacies and the thousands of other issues that arise while raising children.

Moms Talk will also be the place to drop in for a talk about the latest parenting hot topic. Are you a helicopter parent, and is it the best way? Where can we get information on local sports physical locations? How can we help our children’s schools weather budget cutbacks?

Would you like to join our Moms Council? Please send an e-mail to Tim.Rath@Patch.com.

So grab a cup of coffee and settle in as we start the conversation today with a question from the Moms Council's :

Do you allow your high school senior to take a "senior trip" with friends during spring break? If so, what guidelines do you ask them to follow? If not, what do you offer for them to do instead?
