One day, I came home from school and Mom gave me the news that she had signed me up for summer camp. "Oh, like a day camp?" I said.

"No, Honey, I signed you up for two weeks at Camp Shenandoah."

My backpack fell to the ground. I stood there with my mouth open. Two weeks stuck at some bug-infested camp where I didn't know anyone? What was she trying to do to me? Make my life worse?
