It’s really not ok to shun kids with ADHD. And there’s also a big difference between a kid who may sing a silly song repeatedly and annoy some kids, or who forgets his towel and loses every water bottle vs. a kid who would do something very extreme like set the building on fire or strangle another camper. Obviously the latter would be better served in a camp with extensive supervision and support, but there are places for that. The former should not be excluded so your special NT snowflake has a bespoke camp experience. [/quote]

Kids who annoy others, forgets his towel and loses his water bottle (your examples) are exactly what I’m talking about. It’s extra work for the counselors and hard on other kids. Someone asked the question so I’m answering. It’s also my observation that difficult kids are the ones who go to camp youngest bc parents need a break, which is influencing my opinion. [/quote]
