Cinnamon Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Did anyone see this - it started this week? I have just watched it & thought it was really good. The basic premis it that teens go off on holiday on their own,with their mates,but unbeknown to them,their parents are also there & spying on their behaviour from hidden cameras I thought the girls did really well this week, & the father of the boy who wents face was a picture when he saw his son in a hot pink tutu with matching nails! Not sure that I would be as brave as them & watch my child at their worse......... Its on BBC 3 on a Tuesday,if I remember, & is on iplayer here : http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00x9cjq/Sun_Sex_and_Suspicious_Parents_Malia/ Daughters now banned from travelling to Mailia - I am expecting more resorts to be added to this list as the weeks go on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm sooooo glad I wasn't able to watch my ES on holiday in Berlin last summer. He came back with yellow hair, half an eyebrow missing and a new girlfriend. (I had a text sent to me by mistake (meant for her ) - that was enough .)

Seagazer Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 My DD told me about it - I'd much rather not see my children (especially my ES) on holiday He did go to Malia last year with his friends - I did see some photos - I may never recover No they were ok really but I think that its best not for parents of teenagers to not see what they're doing.

alih Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I cannot think of anything worse! I would never let them out again. I remember what I used to get up to that would have had my parents apoplectic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debbier Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I cannot think of anything worse! I would never let them out again. I remember what I used to get up to that would have had my parents apoplectic! I totally agree! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poachedegg Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Didn't watch and wouldn't want to either - poor kids say I, getting to an age where you are old enough to go on holiday on your own (presumably?) and then getting spied on by your parents.

debbier Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 That was my thought: I figured I must have it wrong as I hadn't watched it. If they are old enough to go away then why is spying necessary? My m-i-l would probably do it now if she could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 I actually found it very funny & interesting. But then I have teenage daughters...................not that I would want to do the same as these parents,but it did make for fascinating viewing. Its a testament to the teens maturity that they both behaved BETTER than their parents assumed they would,& neither were upset at having been watched,either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenNutter Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Deliberately did not watch this as my 17 year old ES is going away with a mixed gang of friends to Crete for the first time without us in July. I am already paranoid about it without watching something like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Bad enough seeing what they are up to on facebook. That would be too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I work on the what I don't know can't hurt me premise. I have what I see as quite sensible teenagers but I still don't want to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
