[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former camp counselor I can assure you that popsicles are integral to keeping the schedule, transitioning kids and keeping them in one place for pick up. I can also assure you that if you say anything, [b]you will be branded "that mom"[/b] and mocked mercilessly the minute all the kids are gone. [/quote] I'm with you, OP. I hate the amount of crap and sugar that kids get at school, preschool and what have you. It's overkill and unnecessary. It's also very American. That said, I would never say a word about any of it because I know that teachers, admins, counselors, etc. would act in accordance with the bolded above and - because I know how humanity is - don't want that to negatively impact my kid. I have no doubt that grudges are held against the kids and anyone who says otherwise is lying. People are petty so just stay quiet. Next year, pick a different camp if it bothers you. Not all of them do this. [/quote]
