[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it ironic that most people don't even let their 7 and 8yr olds outside to bike/play on their own (without mom up their ass) but yet ship them off for a week or more to sleep away camp. I think if parents just loosened up and let their kids go off on some of their own adventures with friends, there wouldn't be a need to get away from their kids for some "relief." [/quote] You are comparing apples to oranges though. Camp is supervised and letting your kids run the neighborhood isn't.[/quote] The first poster has a point. I trust my neighbors that I see every day to watch my kid for 2 hours, not some random people who I've never met before to watch my kid day and night for weeks. [/quote] Most of my neighbors are random people I don't know. At least I know counselors are background checked. They also have to work in pairs so no counselor or staff member is alone with a camper.[/quote]
