[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you need to provide a full diagnosis, but it is VERY helpful for counselors if you provide some information. It will absolutely help them better care for your kids. I remember one girl I had in my cabin when I was a counselor at 19. Her parents had provided some information- think along the lines of “Alli can struggle a bit socially and could use help connecting with other girls; she really loves basketball but has a hard time when unexpected things happen.” That info was extremely helpful to us in getting her child integrated in the cabin and making sure she had a successful summer. I remember this 25 years later because at the end of the session her mother came to us in tears thanking us profusely for the great summer her daughter had. At 19, I’m not sure I would have had the awareness to really keep an eye out for her and help ensure things went well if the parents hadn’t given us a heads up.[/quote]
