[quote=Anonymous]My son has anxiety and OCD and had never slept one day away from home before outdoor ed. I encouraged him to go and he was a wreck. He was nervous about sleeping, changing in front of others, etc... I encouraged him to go despite the horrible nights leading up to it. I sat by the phone waiting to get a call to get him (I didn't tell him I'd run up and get him but I would have.). He stayed, he was the only one who didn't shower, I don't even think he changed his clothes or underwear but I considered it a success because he went. He loved it but hasn't spent one night away since then :) The teachers and nurse were great. Touch base with a teacher who is going who knows him and have them check in with him.[/quote]
