My daughter went to Africa for a month and loved it so much she wants to go back. She said they were friendly and really pleased to see people from other countries. What a wonderful opportunity to experience their culture. Please go and enjoy yourself, you may regret it if you don't.

WHY WHY WHY would you want to get out of going to AFRCIA? How many times do you think an opportunity would come up for you to go again???

Go there and have fun. Stop complaining and trying to get out of things that some people would give ANYTHING to do..

If I were you I would jump with excitement if I had a chance to go to Africa. It's going to be so interesting and you'll come back with a ton of stories to share. I went to China this summer and I absolutely loved it. It's an experience that I will never forget. I think you should go because there's a lot more in this world than America. It would be something to look forward to.

But if you absolutely dread the thought of going I would just explain your reasoning behind it to your parents. Opt to stay with a friend if that's possible. You could say that you don't want to be behind in school and that you want to make sure that you don't lose points. But in all honestly, they can make you go. And it's between you and your parents.

Good luck.

well the thing i want to ask is: why WOULD you want to get out of africa? it's probably a once in a lifetime opportunity that you might regret later in life if you pass up. i hear it's really pretty there and you could even see some of the animals and everything. :] but to really answer your question, i don't think there's really any way of getting to stay home. i mean, if there's nobody else to stay with, and you're too young by law to stay home by yourself.. you kind of have to go. i'm sorry. the most you could do is talk to you parents and explain to them that you'd really prefer to stay home than go to africa, and try asking a friend if you can stay with them while you're parents are gone. i hope i helped. <3

well i dont see why you dont want to go cause my friend went there and she had the BEST time. also if u dont go i bet when you are older you would regret not going cause its maybe a once in a lifetime chance. well depending on how long they are going, you can sleep at a friends house... thats all i can think of. hope i helped, but i'm telling you that you should really go.
