[quote=Anonymous]I know one person who takes fmla every summer. It took me some years to figure out what kind of camps would dovetail with my kids needs. Anything with crafts or too much free time did not work at all. Some camps are also more tolerant than others or have better understanding of special needs. Depending on needs you may also be able to find a college kid that is a good fit especially if you advertise at education schools or at a college psych department. But even just a patient college kid can be great. When we interviewed au pairs a lot of the ones we interviewed had siblings or cousins with SN. I’m not saying it’s easy but there are young people out there who have the skill set to be good at this especially 1:1. [/quote]
