Would you sit separately from an 11 and 14 year old at a concert

Can you take him on a one on one hotel outing sometime?

Thanks for the replies. He still says he doesn't want me to buy him a ticket, so I guess he's not going.

A trip with just him and me is probably not a choice due to things I won't get into about dd, but I will figure out something he wants to do next summer that is within reason and make that happen.

That's a good idea. You asked him many times, and he said he didn't want to go. Take him at his word, and give him a treat that would be special for him at another time.

Are they able to text you? If yes, I would be OK with them sitting alone.

as long as you are in the same section area and can meet up at the intermission if there is one or during the breaks between the opening acts.

If your DS is okay with not going then do something special with him only at a later date. I know for sure my 12 yr. old brother would have loved to see Bruce Springsteen with me and my dad when I was 15, but he didn't pitch a fit and they did something else with just the two of them later on.

I don't know that I'd rely on a cell phone at that large of a venue. Sometimes you can't get a signal, or the towers are overloaded.

An update to this thread is that I just ended up buying a single ticket for myself and ds and dd will use the tickets I bought previously. The opening act was announced and its someone ds really likes, so I really wanted him to come (and he agreed). They are sitting in the next section to me, so I felt it was close enough and am hoping it will all work out and we can find each other easily after the show. I guess we will make a plan on where to meet at intermission as well as them having a cell phone to text/call with.

Great update--sounds like a good plan and a night you will all enjoy and remember!!
