[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 497871"] I'm with Soapbox. It's really hard when WE are the only ones that see the problems and see the solutions and everyone else acts like WE'RE delusional. If it was the first time he'd slept away from you, that alone is HUGE. Talk about the anxiety he must have been feeling. Add to that the fact that kids don't SLEEP as much or as well when they are in a setting like that. What a recipe for disaster. Poor kid. Tell him he did well for a first time.....he slept away from home for two whole days!!! He should be proud of that! difficult child 2 got sent home after 2 nights at a week-long camp. difficult child 1 came REALLY close to being sent home after the first night of a 2 night-3 day trip over New Year THIS year. He has slept away from home before but never in this particular kind of setting. He NEVER gets enough sleep when he's away from us and it takes 2 full days/nights to get it back. I hope he does okay with a lot of pep talk. {{{{(((HUGS)))}}}} to you both. I am sooooo proud of him for handling a brand new stressful situation for TWO days!! [/QUOTE]
