    Dear RebYidd23,

    I am not trying to argue with you. On the contrary, i am with you on this as well. I am not saying that this has to happen very often. What I am saying is that when a counselor wants to arrange something special with his/her bunk during the year every so often (like 2 to 4 times a year, or whatever a person feels comfortable with), parents should not stand in the way of letting this happen.

    Dear Writersoul.

    You are absolutely right in terms of a counselor taking one kid from the bunk to pizza, or something similar, but you have to think of the other way, maybe this child needs more T.L.C. (tending loving care) more than anyone else. Could be that the counselor and parents have some sort of arrangement to spend time together for what ever reason it is. People need to be more cognizent and not prejudge a person of who he/she is. Sometimes doing a chesed for a child out of a camp outing could go a long way for a child for years to come.
