[quote=Anonymous]I was a counselor for several years and we always had the reluctant campers who claimed they hated camp, but cried and begged to stay when their parents came to pick them up early. It's an adjustment for every kid, and several cried the first night. But, they're so busy and run around all day, that they collapse into their bunks day two. I allowed 2-3 kids to call home to let their parents know they were fine after receiving a desperate "come get me" letter. But generally, if a kid can make it beyond the first week and really get into the camp activities, they'll be fine. I think trying a two week program is a safe bet. Sleeping and playing in the woods, swimming in a lake, doing arts & crafts, making music & singing, developing friendships and living without any electronics 4 weeks was amazing for my DC. [/quote]
