[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]fWiW, we had a bad experience with Ivymount as well, but I think both Prodigy Mom and Ivymount-Lovin' mom have made their points. Let's get back to the fun annual topic of camps. [/quote]

Agree...  although I don't like being called "Prodigy" Mom.  We don't let DS call himself that.  Anyway, we are packing so DS can attend a specialized camp for his hobby out-of-state.  We don't tell the camps about his ASD/ADHD diagnosis at the advice of his psychiatrist which I feel funny about bc we are generally pretty open about it.  DS's main coach knows his diagnosis but even he felt DS presents like a NT kid his age (DS is medicated for the ADHD) and DS has done really well at camps given that they specialize in his hobby.  DS's made lots of friends and the instructors think he's great and gets fussed over.

DS did not attend ANY camps until this year starting in Spring Break.  He probably would have been thrown out of camp last summer...  so just bc a kid gets thrown out of camp, it does not mean that camp will never work out.

Good luck, everyone![/quote]
