 :roll-eyes: how cute :)
Sorry for interfering, but maybe I can help a bit also - this exercises are long gone, let me think a bit...:

pro: well, you´ll see more of the cultural backround of the place you travel, because parents care for children to learn and such things
- you don´t have to care for things like, how to get there (and back); where to stay, how to pay and so on
- you won´t feel bored

contra: - parent´s can become annoying
- cultural background is interesting only in a bordered amount
- you´re not free in your deceisions when to do what and also the place where to travel will be deceided in the whole group
- maybe you have to wait longer in some places until all of the group are "handled"

Sorry, it´s all my head gives out at the moment :)

Why do you need english answers to a german question???
Life it what happens while you wait for your dreams
Joy and beauty dance where open eyes meet
Fortune does not mean to have the best of everything, but to make of everything the best
She loves him more than he would ever now, he loves her more than he would ever show

Never ever victim

Hey Agnes,

indeed it's strange that they want a reply in English. But the question is clear, isn't it? They want your opinion about vacations with one's (not One's!) parents, want you to give arguments for and against that. And I can't think of any arguments Shelley hasn't mentioned yet...

Cheers!

Hey Agnes,

sorry I couldn't post this any earlier. I hope the following still helps you:

"Dafür: Wenn man mit seinen Eltern verreist, muss man sich meist nicht selbst um die Organisation kümmern. Oft bezahlen die Eltern auch für die Fahrt, das Hotel, die Verpflegung und so weiter. Außerdem lernt man mehr von der Kultur des Landes kennen, weil Eltern auf solche Dinge achten.

Dagegen: Manchmal sind Eltern nervig. Man ist auch nicht so frei in seinen Entscheidungen, was man wann macht, wenn man mit seinen Eltern verreist. Kultur ist auch nur in begrenztem Maß interessant, man will auch mal Spaß haben und nur am Strand liegen oder so."

I tried to keep grammar and vocabulary a bit simpler than I usually do, so that noone will notice anything. :biggrin: Perhaps you want to include one or two of your most favourite errors to hide the source even better.

Cheers!

Hey Agnes,

that's just a transöation of Shelley's suggestions. But if you don't understand it, you shouldn't use it - one question from the teacher, and you're out...

Good luck!
