Help me convince my dad I am fine to travel alone

[Maryann]

I remember when that girl went missing in Negril and was never found. Same thing with Natalie Holloway in Aruba. I have daughters your age. My youngest will be 22 in September. They have been going to Negril with me since they were babies. Of course, now they go to Negril without me, which I think is great, but they always go with a friend(s). You probably wouldn't have any issues, but no doubt your dad would feel more comfortable if you had someone go with you. If that isn't a possibility, then you'll have to decide if you're willing to go against your dad's wishes. You will have to find a safe place to stay and a safe driver, don't walk alone after dark, don't get enebriated and be very aware of your surroundings. Totally 100% understand where your dad is coming from, but you're an adult, and ultimately it's your decision to make.
