[quote=Anonymous]I think it totally depends on your kid, where you live, and what would be ok with you. I live in a small town North of Boston near the beach. It's safe, kids ride bikes, go into town alone, swim at the pool, etc. BUT, my DS who is 11 does 3 weeks of overnight camp plus two weeks of day camp. The other weeks we have a week on the Cape, and two weeks of no camp. My son is responsible, but pretty unmotivated to get up off the couch unless it is to go across the street to hang with our neighbors, who I am not so sure I want him hanging out with. There is no supervision there and they spend a LOT of time on the computer and eating junk. While I am OK with that very occasionally, Summers are so short here and I really want him outside, being active and enjoying the warm weather (if it ever gets here0 it is 50 today, sigh). Camp is the best way for him to do that, unless I am home and we can enjoy the beach and pool and fun outings together.[/quote]
