The camp director just called. Em’s already asking to go home. He and I talked, and agree that she should try to stick out the whole day. If it looks like she’s miserable or more unhappy or things are degrading, he’s going to call and of course I’ll come get her early, but I don’t want her to just give up immediately. That’s a strong trait of hers.<\/p>\n
I understand that she’s overwhelmed easily, but I think it’s good for her to be pushed outside her comfort zone sometimes. That’s how we grow.<\/p>\n
We’ll see if her time at camp continues on after today – and whether I can get a refund if it doesn’t. Bleah.<\/p>\n
