American kids and their parents navigating the twenty-first century.

Kid-sick? Really?

By David Anderegg, Ph.D. on July 21, 2008 in Young Americans

It's that time of year again: parents have done their shopping, labeling and packing, and driven six hours one-way to drop their kids off at sleep-away camp. And then, with the kids safely dropped off at Camp No-Ko-Me-Ko-No, the parents drive home, kick off their shoes, pour themselves a drink and start enjoying every parent's dream: the kid-free summer! Does this sound familiar? Uh...sorry. Wrong decade. That was the fifties.

Kid-sick? Really?

Yes, that is true. Every parent wants a kids free home. But actually they can not leave without kids. They want just celebrate a little without kids in alone. It is an interesting story which you wrote.
