[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP just call the camp and explain you got a sad letter and you want to check how he’s doing. Ask for a call back from the counselor or camp staff - don’t ask to talk to your son (unless they arrange a call on his birthday?) Most likely he wrote the letter a week ago in a bout of homesickness and you will hear he is totally fine! I received a sad homesick letter from my 11 year old this year too. Fortunately due to mail delays I received it the same day as a happy letter, that was clearly written after the sad one. And she came home having had an absolutely wonderful time and wants to return next year. We laughed about the sad letter - she said she was just feeling sad that night. I’m convinced all the “go pick him up” shaming posters are just against sleepaway camps for whatever reason. Fine, don’t send your kid then, but geez, what terrible advice they’re giving!![/quote] + a million. [/quote]
