[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once I heard about camp from my teenage counselor’s perspective i felt I never would have been able to send them to camp as little kids if I had understood. Yes, it’s normal and no, it’s not very safe. [/quote] 100% My 14 yo is experiencing this. He is confident but it is harrowing. Re: pool - I told my kid under no circumstances was he to be a pool counselor, and he said they were clear you could opt out of that. That was the right choice because we are not a swim family, and my kid is not a strong swimmer (he's done lessons and passed tests, but we really should do some adult lessons...anyway). That said, ANY additional eyes on the pool to alert the lifeguard is a good thing. So I guess it depends on how they frame it. "Keep a focused watch" is good and totally different from "you're in charge of this section of the pool" which is terrible. [/quote]
