[quote=Anonymous]I had a similar situation with my DS, only it was between 1st and 2nd grade. It wasn't his first summer in camp, he had been in an all-day camp the previous summer and did fine, but this was a different one, he didn't know anyone, and I guess just an unfamiliar situation. It's a bit different from your situation in that I was getting calls from the counselor that he was upset and crying. Day three of this and I pulled him out. I worked outside the home FT and I was thinking what the heck am I going to do with this kid? I was really lucky to have a college-aged neighbor looking for a job so I paid her to watch him over the summer. He loved her. I'm inclined to go with your feeling to give it a few more days, through the end of the week, and then make a decision together. If she still feels strongly about it, I don't think there's a need to push a 5 yo to be miserable in order to teach a bigger lesson. Plenty of time for those life lessons to come![/quote]
