Ghany Gatherings Episode 34: One Family's Alleghany Journey

So there's, you know, we ended up, you end up building your summer around camp.

And it's been spectacular.

I would not go back and do it any other way.

And it just turned out great.

So yeah.

The kids were, all three kids ended up going to camps that were just super positive experiences where they're built up and they thrive, right? And it takes away a lot of the friction at home with, you know, like put down the device, get out of the house, do your chores, do those things, right? They're doing the same thing here, right? Obviously there's no devices.

This is an important thing.

We looked at this at the time when the girls were young.

Or older, once they got older.

Yeah, right.

This was an investment in their mental health because it was six weeks.

By the time they got older and were here for really seven weeks during the summertime, You know, that's seven weeks that they're not on their devices.

They're not immersed in social media and stuff like that.

They're going to get all of that stuff at home.

And there's very little that you can control of that.

But this is great to do that, to give that to them.

Now, the flip side of that is it's also a really good time when we got to go walk about and travel and visit our friends and stuff like that.

And our kids are... having a much better time than they would be at home.

Right.

And they're learning really valuable lessons.

I don't know.

You know, when you guys started the, the LIT program, we were right in time, you know, we were just right in line for that.

And that was really a good change that you guys made.

Or addition, I should say a change, just like a new development program.

It was, it's, it's just been great.
