[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid had always done a variety of day camps because of our work schedule and he likes to be busy. The summer he was 13 turning 14 was when Covid stopped all that and I was worried about how things would go. He ended up having a rather magical summer actually he and his buddies spend a lot of time biking in the woods, around town, down to the beach etc. etc. Obviously all the possible in a small town but he loved the independence. And he was pretty much outside all summer.[/quote]

My son was in middle school and still talks about how two years ago was the best summer of his life. All friends were around, no one was traveling and there weren’t constant sports conflicts. They had an old fashioned summer and spent it biking and fishing. We are in the suburbs here and I try to remember this when we think of all of the bad of covid. That summer was perfect for DS.

Ditto.  My family had the same experience.  Summer 2020 was the best summer my tween ever had.  It made me realize how over scheduled we had been.  Summer 2020 bwas very much like my own summers and my kid matured so much.  We started allowing so much more independence. I'm grateful for that time.[/quote]

Meant to say 2020.  Not some time traveler.[/quote]
