If you’re a student in the 18-22 age range or the parent of a youngster who is, odds are good you’ve been talking about the idea of Spring Break. While Spring Break is in the news every year and has grown infamous for its debaucherous spirit, Spring Break is a particularly heated subject this year because parents have seen the headlines outlining an increase in crime in Mexico (the go-to destination for many Spring Breakers).
But the kids, they want to party. They want to keep the Spring Break tradition alive. Parents, students say, just don’t understand that all those Spring Break horror stories won’t happen to their kids.
If you’re in the middle of one of these debates, let us at Life123 help you out. We have a collection of brand-new Spring Break travel pieces that will answer the questions and explain the issues that have come up. In fact, our very own Meghan Colloton was just on TV’s “The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet” to discuss Spring Break risks today! You can visit the site to view her appearance and you can use that as a great springboard to dive into our content on this issue.
Curious about what is really going on south of the border in Mexico? We answer that question with our Spring Break guide on how to travel to Mexico safely. We break down the top Spring Break destinations and their dangers, but we also can help you and your youngster plan an alternative Spring Break that provides fun without the high risk factors. Once you settle upon a course of action, remember to view our Spring Break travel safety tips.
The point of Spring Break is to enjoy yourself and escape from classes for a time. If you do it right, students will come back happy, safe and full of good memories.
