Like people said above if you know parents very well and trust them and they be with them whole time it could be wonderful and they learn a lot. Thought if live in north Caucasus i woulded advise there a lot of social tension and terrorist attacks.

well to tell u the truth i am russian and i am 14 years old and i wouldsn't her if she does know any russian and if shes going with her friends especially since this is the first time that shes going out of the country i would go somewhere safer may be a little later. there are many dangerous people there belive ive lived there for half my life
Mas says
What I can say is that concerning the country there is no problem, the same safety and danger exist as in most other countries.
So, now u have to judge the maturity of your daughter and the
trustworthy of this parents' friend.

well i think – on one hand why not! She'll have a chance to see a complitely different country, meet our people, culture. And probably that family she might go with would visit all their relatives, it could be fun and interesting. But on the other hand – would that family have enough time to watch on them? would they care? Cause girls might not want to seat under the table all the time in guests, and would wanna go out. And your girl would definatly put an attention on her – cause she is a foreigner. In what city they're going? If their goal to travel through russia – then i think it would be ok to go, and i agree with the previous answer – how do YOU feel about it? Is your girl a good one? i mean is she responsible for herself? not those weird only parting? If you're sure in her, you trust her – then bon voyage!
And of course you should have a serious talk with that family, does they really want her to go with them? or it just girls who wants to go together?
good luck

If you feel your daughter has a good level of common sense and maturity (at age 14, kids can really be either) and she will be supervised by her friends parents the whole time (as well as the parents being trustworthy… have you talked with them very seriously?) it would be an amazing experience for her. Russia however is a VERY different place from here and much more 'dangerous' in some respects, check out the area she'll be staying… cities might be very intense. Also consider if your daughter gets home sick easy… changing her ticket could be very exspensive if she has a hard time.
