[quote=Anonymous]I was a boy mom for years and now have one of each. Before having kids, I always thought it should all be co-Ed, but after, I would not send my daughter to a coed camp or activity where I would expect the majority of participants to be boys unless she went with at least one friend. I saw numerous times when my son was in camps and activities that some boys are just little jerks. They will leave out girls in groups, bully them etc. Sometimes that is compounded by teachers or counselors who don’t know how to manage those dynamics or don’t even register that it’s an issue. From what I see, a camp with 10 boys and 1 girl is not going to be fun for the girl, IMO. So, as sad as it is, if I sign my daughter up for STEM or certain sports camps, I make sure to coordinate with friends. [/quote]
