I knew she would have some gems… Tina Payne Bryson, Ph.D. The experience of going to camp changes kids, often in significant ways. When your son or daughter comes home, you might notice that he or she is more confident, more independent, or different in some other subtle or significant ways. I remember the first year my oldest son returned from camp and I started to put sunscreen on him. He laughed and said, “Mom, I’ve been putting my own sunscreen on for two weeks without you. I can handle it.” Revision moment. I was using a map that had changed significantly in two short weeks. So when your camper comes home, I want to encourage you to see him with new eyes, to revise your map of him. An outdated map leads to frustration for both of you. It can actually lead us away from our intended path. But an updated map allows us to intentionally and successfully reach our destination.
