[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I think that sometimes people who are very gung ho about sleep away camp don't understand why others aren't as enthusiastic as they are. I say this as someone who absolutely loved sleep away camp and went for many many years. Now one of my children loves it and goes back every year, and my other child doesn't love it or hate it but would rather go to daycamp. My own father spent many summers at sleep away camp for the entire summer. My mother's family was poor and she didn't even go to any camps. My father was so happy that I loved it but he also understood that my siblings didn't like it. OP, I think you just need to be very blunt and tell your parents your child doesn't want to overnight camp, so this summer she's not going overnight camp---discussion closed. You can't control their reaction or their feelings about this, but you can control your family. That's all you have to do.[/quote]
