[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10 year old DS is nervous and just wants to be inside all day on his computers. He makes friends easily but is not into sports since he fears competition. He says he does not want to go to camp since he does not want to share bathrooms (germ phobe). He also will not experiment with foods, anything new is a big stress. My sister suggested sleep away camp for over a month next year. This is supposed to bring him out a bit. I am not sure about that approach. [b]I fear that it will completely backfire.[/b] The problem is that the high end camps (with good food and lodging) are usually 6-7 weeks minimum. Does anyone have any experience with this? Suggestions appreciated. [/quote] It will. Respect the person your child is, and everything will be fine. [/quote]
