[quote=Anonymous]It builds independence and resilience. I only went to one week of sleep away camp, the summer after 5th grade, but it was a big experience in my life and stayed with me for decades. My husband and I were talking about how camp leaves oversized memories for the amount of time we were actually there. My 9yo went to her first week this year and she loved it. It was hard not being able to talk to her all week, but I think it is a valuable step in independence for a child. [/quote]
