[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never understand why people make such a big deal about this. My oldest did outdoor ed a couple of years ago and you'd think from some parents' reactions that the kids were being deployed to Iraq. And there's always posts here freaking out too. My kid went to a nature center based in a lovely area of Rockville. Parents could volunteer aka check up on their kids. It was pretty standard fare bonding activities and camp stuff. The kids had chores to do around the center and in the cafeteria for meals. It wasn't a life changing experience but it was a traumatic one either - it was mostly no big deal (although my son was happy to miss a few days of classes.)[/quote] The helicopter types are the ones who make a big deal about it. They cannot stand the thought of not being in control for four days. I say deal with it.[/quote]
