[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of mine has just always been a velcro baby. She's happily gone to "granny camp," and to visit other relatives solo (my siblings and I used to trade kids around throughout the summers when they were in ES/ MS), but mostly, she likes being with me. To the point that she chose a DC college. And that's fine. She has the skills and independence she needs. [b]Also, they're expensive.[/b] So I never pushed! [/quote] Exactly. My kids didn't particularly want to go, and they're so expensive: why on earth would I do this to ourselves????? My now college-age kid went to Model UN overnights, and my daughter is doing All-State Orchestra overnights, and that's it. A kid we know is a harpist, and since they are in very short supply, music camps often give hefty discounts, and that's how my friend sends her to camp for a very reduced price. Otherwise she wouldn't go, because it's not worth it at all. OP must be in a different wealth bracket. [/quote]
