I was furious. I vowed at the time that I would never forgive them for not acceding to my wishes.
It turns out that they were right. If I had gone, I would have been stranded there, as my boyfriend had to be airlifted out in a diabetic coma.
Plus, some really unhealthy stuff was going on there and it could have ruined my life.

Almost as long as my entire life when I wanted to go to Woodstock. LOL.
When a kid expresses a desire for something that is detrimental to his life, health, future fertility, and sanity, it is up to responsible, loving parents to say, “No.”
Unfortunately, the Powers-That-Be make this very difficult.

That’s because satanic powers active through human hosts want innocent children destroyed.
