[quote=Anonymous]I think most of the posts about kids "hanging out at the pool all day" are from SAHMs. My kids practically lived at the pool during the summer as teens. But I was at home. There is no way I would have left a young teen at home all day every day for the entire summer. That's way too much unsupervised free time. And that's when teens get into trouble. I will say that beginning around the summer before high school, my kids always had camps related to school activities - band camps, sports camps, etc. Just as an example - My youngest is 15. This summer he has two weeks of marching band camp, a week of JROTC leadership camp, and week of music camp at an out of state college. He is also spending a week with one of his brothers in Colorado. Add in our two week vacation and that's pretty much the summer. Most kids get pretty busy starting in high school. [/quote]
