[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am shocked that people just send their kids off to months of camps. Don’t you miss them? My kids are the best during summer. It’s so much more laxed. No grades to argue about. Watching them work, volunteer, find things to do with friends, and go on weekend vacations with us or their friends

I just can’t imagine an empty house all summer. That’s just sad to me. [/quote]

You do you. My kids love their specialty day camp and their four weeks at overnight camp. They experience and learn a level of independence they’d never get at home for an entire summer. They focus on their own interests and meet new people.

Some people view camps as opportunities to explore new people, places and experiences, which is a foundation of raising well rounded, independent children who can navigate different social settings well. If you think keeping them home with you can provide them the same opportunities, good on you. [/quote]

Um you didn’t answer the question lol. You just rationalized your reasoning why they aren’t at home. [/quote]
