speaking as a counsler- i feel you should tip- can you take care of 18 ten yearolds? and its in sleepaway- so they are all home sick- if you are sending your kid that young then you really should tip because your kid doesnt know how to take care of herself- no matter what you think- at home she might shower, eat, brush her teeth, cleanup etc.- but in camp trust me its dif- tipping is NOT optional!!! and if someone thinks it is- they should try being a counsler- its really hard!!!!!!!- and also just because your kid says the counsler is “mean” to her- pls ask why- because it might just be because she didn’t give her attention at that specific second she wanted it, or because she made her go to an activity or cleanup! and dont feel bad asking that counsler- or the jc- they would prefer for you to understand rather than you think they are a “bad” counsler and not tip them- 98% or 99% of counsler and jcs deserve to be and should be tipped!!!
