My lad went to see some band (think it was yellowcard) at the Brixton academy when he was 14 with a friend, the friends father drove them and picked them up, but didnt attend the concert.
It entirely depends on the child of course, but I consider it part of the learning and growing up process. Friends have allowed daughters to camp at reading at 16 years of age, and again they have survived ok.
Parents are over protective, but I appreciate its a fine line to walk.
