    Any bungalow colonies supervise well teen girls working as counselors?

    where can a lifeguard get a position without previous experience, and in a good sviva, good chevra?

    the only circumstance in which I would safely send a girl to a bungalow colony is one where she will be living with a family member (older sister, aunt, ect)

    No one else will watch her the way she needs to be watched. And even in the care of a family member, you’re rolling the dice. allit takes is one “ladies night out” (and there are numerous ones over the course of a summer) or one “quick trip to the city” (and there are several of those too) and the “watchers” are not watching.

    Forget all assurances from the head staff, colony owner. Been to the mtns enough years to know that no one really watches the junior staffers. So unless you’re taking about a 20-25 year old, keep the girl in camp, at any and all costs.

    Think of it this way; so far, this teen has cost you close to $100,000 in clothing and tuition. You’re gonna risk that over a few hundred dollars in earnings? Or a few thousand in camp savings?

    Not worth the risk in my book. I pay dearly to protect my kids over the summer, and would only advise the same to another parent.

    I don’t think teens need supervision.

    I think parents are more likely to over-supervise than to under-supervise. So I would say the parents need the cage.

    I think the cage should lock the out from the coffee room too.

    I agree with popas second statement not the first one every teen needs some supervision.

    Uh, Itche and Poppa, are you by chance parents of teen girls? Or are you closer to the age where you’re likley to date a teen girl?

    Trust me, there is no such thing as being too careful over July / Aug when it comes to teens. Take it from a former teen, whose been there and done that, and the parent of several teens.

    You can never be too careful, especially when it comes to bungalow life.
