[quote=Anonymous]My sister and I went as kids. She kept going and became a counselor. I dropped it after a few summers to do other things. It was GS camp and not that expensive - we were not rich. I think my son would love camp but hasn't asked about it and is only 7 so no rush there. My daughter is 9 and has HFA. I would hesitate to send her due to the mean girl behavior I saw myself at camp. She has a hard time socially and is always the kid who gets teased. I think camp can foster independence and self-reliance but it's not the only way to do that. My brother did not want to go to camp and his first six weeks away from home were for freshman year of college. He has since travelled the world and currently lives abroad. So there's that. [/quote]
