Picked up the kids from camp today. Wow they are just as bad as they were when we dropped them off.  Mouthy and argumentative with each other.  My daughter 14 has decided that if someone else is talking that SHE must be talking to and heard OVER the others.  Grrr... should have relished the vacation more.

What kind of camp were they at? My kids always come home refreshed and excited.

Definitely find a new camp for next year.

Sounds like my boys today. Nothing but nit picking and bickering, but it's been a long week for all of us. My family was up from Louisiana and Tennessee and my husband family was up from Virginia. It seems like we've been going non stop since last Monday.

Sounds like yours have had a long week too, maybe they're just tuckered out.

I think they are tired and they might be just over excited.  I did inform the bossy one I'm not putting up with it anymore, the older one that if he can be a leader at camp he can be one at home too, and the youngest that her attitude is leaving and she's to change the locks.

Hopefully it's just that they're tired. My son comes back extremely tired from camp. Usually, he'll crash on the car ride home, and it's extremely rare for him to sleep in the car.

Did they have a good time?

They are probably just tired, I know mine were the two times they went to camp. Hopefully once they have a food nights sleep it will be better

Yeah just spend 60 bucks film to be developed and my son had NO pictures of himself!  That's all I asked him for was a single picture of himself.  20 bucks on his 60 bucks total, the girls listened.
