So how old should one be before being allowed to "walk alone in a seedy
part
of town"? And would it make a difference if they were boys instead of
girls? And how would being 18 make them safer?

Why don't we put this into terms that your limited intellect can
understand?

You're going on a dangerous and life threatening trip. You will be
taking one person with you that is experienced in this type of trip.
You haven't met either one of them before.

All you know is that one of them has five years experience and the
other has twenty years experience in this type of trip.

Which one are you going to ask to accompany you? Pick one and explain
your reasoning for that choice.


I can tell you right now that there are too many variables for him to decide
or he will not understand the question at all.
Because he very seldom has anything to really contribute to the group I did
it to him again, saves space.
