[quote=Anonymous]As others have noted, it's a great opportunity for kids to spread their wings and gain some confidence and independence. The first time, my ds went for one week at 9. He was homesick at first, but by the end of the week, he didn't want to leave. I think different kids are ready to go at different ages, but my observation is that the kids are often ready earlier than the parents. I've seen many a nervous-wreck mom drop off a perfectly fine kid. It's not the kid that's "not ready" in many cases. [/quote]
