Radical Unschoolers Network

the network for radical unschooling families

I signed my son Giuseppe up for day camp again this year. He is 7 and loved it last year. This year however he HATES it. I signed him up for 4 weeks and we just finished the first week. The first morning was fine but everyday since its harder and harder. He does not want to get out of the car. He says he has a stomach ache. When I pick him up at 4:00 and ask how it was he says fun!!! FUN!!! He does'nt want to get out of the car in the morning!!!! What is up. The other issue is we paid quite a lot of money for this camp....and I am prepping my house to be put up for sale and need all the time I can get uninterrupted. In the morning he is miserable, then I am miserable...then I pick him up and he is having a ball. I have asked him what would make camp more fun and he says nothing will. I did ask him before I signed him up and he did want to go. There all schooled kids in his tribe, but there were last year too. This is the only structured thing that he /we do. Maybe he is finding out he does not like structure. AND there are swimming lessons and he has said he does not need them because he already knows how to swim. ( He does not). So I think he may be stressed about the lessons. I am not at all sure what to do.
