The family she is staying with are wonderful people, but I am concerned because my daughter and her friend will be going to day trips into Bangkok. Should I be worried??Is it safe for an American teenage girl to travel in Thailand?
Don't worry.
Now that OJ is behind bars, the world is safe again.Is it safe for an American teenage girl to travel in Thailand?

As long as they go to places where there is a lot of people, Do not go walking on the beach late at night alone, I believe the family she is staying with will watch her and guide her in what she can do or not to do. I believe that Bangkok is safer that most American cities.
Good Luck, Have fun and smile!!
Your daughter should be fine staying with a Thai family .
Going for day trips to Bangkok in the company of her Thai friend , should be reasonably safe . They are likely to go to central shopping areas , where they are not likely to encounter any danger , more than any other big city market ot shopping centre . I would assume the Thai girl knows her way about , and is sensible . They should be sure to return home before dark , about 6:30pm , not to explore industrial and perifery zones .
I don't think you should be worried . Central Bangkok is a fine modern city with subway , buses , taxis etc . to get around . On the street taxis are very cheap , thais generally know which ones and can speak to the driver .
Your daughter will be as safe in thialand as she will be back home. The thai are a great people and I am sure the family will surely take care of your daughter as you have taken care of theirs.
I would think the family probably have the same issues when their daughter went to stay with your family ... and I am sure she ture out ok.
Give your daughter a chance to see the world and with someone to take care of her you can 'rest' a little. Just tell her to give you a call each night etc ... that would make you feel better.
Oh and dont worry about clubbing ... the legal age is 20 in thailand and everyone's ID will be check. I am 40 and they still check mine ;)
Cheers
as a mother you have every right to be worried however if these people are as wonderful as you say, then your daughter will be in good hands. am sure the family will look out for her especially when they take the day trips. being from thailand they know what to look out for and what to avoid.
No. Don't worry
Thailand is pretty safe. tghe people are wonderful people and they do actually help look after strangers if there are problems arising.
The family she will staying with will go all out to ensure that she has a good stay and safe too, so you need not worry too much.
No
I don't regard Thailand as a 'safe' country. the homicide rate is nearly twice as in US.
Yes it is, especially as she will be staying with a Thai family. There are so many wonderful things to see in Bangkok that I doubt she will see them all in the time she has here. I have travelled extensively throughout the world, and Thailand IS one place I'm happy to be after dark. I cannot say the same for most European countries and I would not even think about extending my travel experiences by visiting america -- I know it's not the same everywhere in america, but gun crime, drugs etc., etc., makes it very off-putting
No but tell her to be careful just incase
Go with her.this is the sex fpr hire kidnapping capital of the east, Its a nice vacation for you and your wife. Let her visit days with the old friend and tavel the countyside in a car you can rent/
OR SAY NO. don't sacrifice your child in the attempt to retain the title ';coolest dad';
I think she will fine and enjoy to travel in Thailand
Sex trade industry in Thailand is not around BKK. There are specific place. I thought your daughter will not go there. Your daughther is 17 year old, she cannot go to pub in Thailand.
i would worry more if she was going to america or europe. Your daughter friend is thai and i am sure she know the way around here. she will be fine.
Hi, i just travelled to Bangkok alone last month for 6 days. It is safe for her to travel alone. Just watch out for guys who gets friendly with her and keep a distance (i was warned, but never encounter such problem.) Other than that, there's no imminent danger for her as a lone, female traveller. Need not worry!
I visit Thailand every year as my girlfriend is thai, though Bangkok is not on of my favourite places, there is more beautiful places to visit, we do spend time there and have never had any problems, if she is with local thai people she will be ok as the are very clued up on local tricks, pick pockets can be a problem just keep money and passport in a small zipped bag under clothing and she won't have a problem, from experience less crime than most capital cities eg usa or europe.
Yes, you should! The locals are not the main danger, Thailand has an active sex trade industry. Pedophiles and other perverts flock there to engage this trade. It also has one of the highest rates of communicable STDs in Asia.
