    My son is twelve-years-old now, and I want to find something for him to do this summer that will be a new experience for him. So I like how you point out that a summer camp will help kids meet new people an explore their independence. It seems like that is just what I want for him, so I’ll just need to find a camp he could go to.

    I really like the tip on how summer camp will give kids experiences that will teach them independence and decision making. My wife has been very protective of our son, and I want to teach him to be out on his own and fend for himself. I will be sure to tell my wife that summer camp will allow him to grow better as a person!
