[quote=Anonymous]This is our first summer back in the US, and initially we assumed we'd have to book full-day camps for every day of the summer break that we're not traveling. But then I see a lot of DCUMers post about letting their kids stay home so they can play in the neighborhood or go to the local pool. Is that fairly common? My kids are very mature and independent, but they also like to be active and challenged. I think they'd get bored at home alone all day. Or maybe not, I have no idea. If your kids are in this age range, do they like staying home during some summer weeks? Is it advisable for working parents, or does it end up being more hassle than it's worth? (DH and I work full-time, though I can easily WFH on days I need to.) [/quote]
