[quote=Anonymous]The goal of a parent is to raise a child to adulthood that can be a good person/productive member on society on their own. Adulthood doesn't have to be 18 and you can live at home and be independent. I never went to sleep away camp (no $) but I spent summers with grandma in a different country and helped clean and learned to cook and fetch water from a well. Lived at home after college to save up for a car and apartment. I have one kid who is generally anxious about new situations so probably no camp for her but she's learning to do things for herself. And her sister is fearless and comfortable in most situations. [/quote]
