I worked at a camp but never went. I saw a lot of lonely kids who felt were being dumped by their parents. Lil Pete has been doing fencing camps the last three years (13-15). She isn't the camp type but loves bouting so they work for her. Lil Griff has not expressed any interest and life is busy enough without missing more kid time. They do a lot with their Grandparents and friends over the summer including Adirondac time so all they really miss is the Lord of the Flies stuff that they can get reading the political news.

Bad parents come in all flavors. This one decision has nothing to do with it.
