[quote=Anonymous]My kids go to ES aftercare like Bar-T, so I try to explore different types of camps in summer week by week at different locations. They also explore different EC during school years. Many families in my neighborhood ( mostly white) send their kids to the same summer camps every years for many weeks or they spend some weeks at beach. And, they say it is convenient, stay with the school friends signing up same camps every summer etc. When I talk to other families in other school district (mostly asians) like in W neighborhood, they are like me sending their kids to different locations week by week. Is it culture thing that Asian families normally like to dig into exploring different types of summer camps compared to other races?

My DH (born here) has the same mentality and nag at me that why I go through the troubles spending a lot money to plan on different types of summer camps at each week, and it is a pain to work out on drop off/pick up on multiple kids. He says that his summer at childhood was just staying at home watching tv, playing in neighborhood and go to cheap county camps at most. I work full time, so I need his help for a few weeks to do split the responsibilities for multiple kids drop off/pick up because our kids do not attend same camps each week. Our kids enjoy doing different things at each week. Is he right or he is right that I am planning too much? [/quote]
