In Lifestyle, Parenting, Random Thoughts on March 23, 2019

My kids are getting older, they’re 7 and 9 now, and I’ve been contemplating a summer camp where they actually stay there for a week – the sleepaway camp. I recall being around 8 years old when I attended my first overnight camp and I have really fond memories of it! It was very strange at first, and I was a little homesick too.

What are some signs you can watch for to show that your child is ready for some independence?
