[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. Thanks again for the advice and encouragement. I reached out to the camp Director to let him know what I was hearing and he put me in touch with her counselor. Both were very kind and appreciated that I had said something. They assured me they could "help" in a way that was subtle and nonthreatening to the teen social radar. ;) Whether it was their help or just the passing of time, things are going better. On Sunday, she mentioned going back next year when camp starts and staying longer to get to know more kids. No word from her since!

I agree that electronics are getting in the way, and next year if she attends camp she will go phone-free.[/quote]

Great news!

Your DD sounds pretty terrific, by the way.  She knew camp might be a little challenging, but she wanted to take a risk and put herself in a new situation that might push her boundaries a bit.  To me, that speaks volumes about her confidence in herself and her sense of the support she's getting at home.  Good for her!!  [/quote]

Thank you for the praise of my DD! It made my day to read your kind words. [/quote]
