[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has your kid never been to sleepaway camp? Some of those accommodations are really shabby and threadbare. I'm UMC and I say GOOD. It's a safe way for them to know they're starting to be on their own, and mommy and daddy aren't going to be there to make everything all nice. Also, to worry about your college-age son rolling off his bed is a bit infantilizing.[/quote] Not a lot of families send their kids to sleepaway camp in this area. We're not in NY. [/quote] What? Almost every kid I know went to sleep away camp. [/quote] I never did. But I grew up sharing a bedroom with 2 siblings. And a bathroom for 5 of us. And no AC. So my freshman year tiny double dorm room didn't bother me. I had my own desk for the first time. Also we hung out in the lounge quite a bit. And then the next year I had my own room for the first time - even tinier than the double but that was fabulous![/quote]
