Would you be mad if your 16 year old got a passport behind your back?

[Love]

I would be more upset at the person who issued it since you need to be 18 or have parental consent to get a passport.

Like I said. It was legal for her to get one

Interesting. Where are you? Everything I've read for the US says minors need concent of some form.

I don't think I'd be upset, just concerned as to why she didn't tell me earlier.

I would not be bothered by it as long as they were not going to use it without letting me know first. Its good to have one. I need to get us all one- just in case. Never know when you might have to leave the country because the mafia is after you or something

Do you hang onto her other important documents like birth certificate etc? If not I'm not sure why you think it's weird she wants to keep it. Is she not responsible enough, does she lose things?

I keep all the important documents in the safe. That is the best place to keep that kind of stuff.

I am with you on this. I have all our documents like marriage certificate-house deed-car ownership papers-birth certificates-SS cards in one folder in a certain spot. I would ask that I keep her passport there just for safety sake and identity protection

I would be pretty pissed that she would do it behind my back. Why do you think she felt she couldn’t be open about it?

I used to think that too, but I learned after a post on CM that was just like this one that 16 year olds can indeed get passports without parental consent from both parents. As long as one parents signs a notarized consent, sho could get it without her mother knowing.

No, I don't think I would be mad. I would remind her that I she can always talk to me about big decisions, such as going out of the country and such.
