This is a ridiculous statement. If a 40 year old can’t tell their parents no to a trip, that’s a problem with the 40 year old. At 19, even though you’re legally an adult, you’re probably still very reliant on your parents, don’t have a very high paying job, and likely don’t have your own place.
When you were 19, did you have much of a say if your parents wanted to take you on a trip? Legally, sure. But in reality?
Bro you could say that about any age at that point.
