When I was about 16 years old I was invited on holiday with my cousin of similar age. She had always come on holiday with me and her parents wanted to return it. However, when I arrived they were in a small caravan with themselves, we two teenage girls and their 4 year old young daughter.
Nothing social nearby, at leas a couple of miles walk across mud to get to the nearest proper seaside town for dances, cinema. O
On my second day there I did that mud walk to get to a telephone box to phone my parents begging them to send a message to say I had to return home as one of them was not well. They refused. I stuck it another couple of days, then just lied to my Aunt and Uncle saying I had spoken to my parents on the 'phone and knew my Mum was ill (she often was), and I really needed to go home. And I did.
What sort of family would you not want to marry into?
