[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is lashing out over a perceived injury or slight.  Because grannie stopped by camp.

that's all I'm sayin[/quote]

Actually "stopping by camp" is a big deal. The kids are there specifically to be away from home. They are often navigating being away from home for the first time, creating their own lives without their adults around. They are often working through homesickness etc. The entire point of camp is to be on your own. Aside from visiting days, parents are not generally welcome. It's not college.

See : https://www.campthompson-carlislefamilyymca.org/index.php/resources/resource/homesickness-dos-and-donts

Do not "Visit the camp. While some camps have organized parent visiting days, others do not. Please do not arrive to camp unexpectedly and request to see your camper. While your child may be well adjusted, the sight of a parent with their child may trigger feelings of homesickness in other campers. Similarly, your presence may negatively affect your own child’s camp experience. You chose to send your child to camp so they may grow – it is up to you to give them the space for that growth to occur away from you."[/quote]
