What makes parents worry is not how far or how long their children go, but with who their children go. Parents will still feel safe when their children go to other place for few day if their children go with people who they can trust. But parent will worry if their children go with people who have bad behavior although only for few hours in the city because they worry their children will do something wrong. That's why my parents allowed me to go to other place for few days, but forbade me to go out with boys who indeed had bad reputation.
14 years old actually is not too young. There are boys in this age who traveling alone to visit their relatives. I myself sometime visited my grandma and grandpa in other city when I was teen. I went to station, rode train, continue with commuter and then walked to my grandma's home. That was around 220 km from my home.
I have learned to handle situation if I was lost in traveling, in city area and in nature, since I was kid. Then after I became father I taught my children to handle situation if they were lost.
I wanna be an odd jobs to find quests and adventure lol
Will that work :statisfie;D
