    Thanks annaliisa. This looks really interesting - if not for this summer, maybe for next. Do you know someone who has gone to this camp?

    I've contacted the camp to see if DS is eligible, and if they can accomodate a mostly-French speaking student.

    Thanks for this. I do need to remind myself to model a good attitude for my kids. I am very self-critical, and can be pretty critical of others too. I see this trait in my DS11, so I'm trying to be a better model for him. I will have a look at the Sylvia Rimm book some time soon when I'm feeling like I can read it without going on the "self-blamathon" that Grinity was talking about!
