[quote=Anonymous]When my oldest was 13, I started allowing him to do the LIT program and to take a few weeks off in the summer ostensibly to do his summer reading and math, which I know he didn't do. It was fine. He liked the free time and I was able to set him up with some volunteer work in nursing homes for a day or so each week he was off. This summer, he is going to camp and LIT for half of the summer and the rest he is on his own. One of the differences this year is that he is old enough to be taking public transportation, so he can do more than just hang out at home or at the pool. Not sure when I'm going to say ok to off all summer. And, not sure that my younger kids will get to stop camp at the same age - depends on their maturity and behavior and also whether they want it. My oldest likes unstructured time more than the younger ones do. [/quote]
