I know this isn't a giftie question, but you guys have lots of great advice, so here goes --
Dh just came home from a scout meeting with ds11 where they told the parents that the younger kids will probably be REALLY SUPER homesick for the first few days of overnight camp (1 week). "The crying usually stops around wednesday."
Seriously??
Please let me know if that has been others' experience, I just can not see ds really freaking out, but he's just been on a really good even keel for the last year or so, so maybe I am just assuming his happy spirits would not be dented by being away from us. He laughed when I told him some of the kids cry a lot; I said, 'well that must be for families that really like each other!'
Even if they do cry for a few days...is that major damage we'd be inflicting on our son, or a good growth experience?? Very confusing.
