I am aware of one instance in our family of a 13-year old traveling alone.
The mother and a number of children had been sent for by the father who had
come earlier, but this child had been rejected by immigration authorities
(or perhaps emigration authorities -- I'm not certain) because he had
tracoma. Once the infection was cleared up, he followed on his own.
