Kirstie Allsopp's social media posts about her son's independent trip to Europe sparked both support and criticism, igniting a debate on appropriate ages for unsupervised travel.
Allsopp stated, 'If we're afraid, our children will also be afraid; if we let go, they will fly,' emphasizing the importance of confidence in parenting.
According to Carolyn Pearson, 'I know 50-year-olds who are feckless... I don't think it's an age issue, it's a maturity and outlook issue regarding travel.'
The incident has led to discussions around what age is suitable for children to travel without adult supervision, a question that lacks a straightforward answer.
