As his parent, I would need to take everything into account about what they are offering and make sure that I thought he was capable of handling it.

We have taken my son (he's 14) to the Whaley and Queen Mary tours. However, a two-hour tour is much different than a 9-week camp, I know.

While I would consider it, I don't think he's old enough for such an intense experience.

Well....I have mixed feelings on a lot of this.

We've taken our kids to a few haunted places, but in very carefully controlled situations and circumstances. I would have a difficult time allowing them into someone else's tutelage to do so because I can't control what they are being taught or experiencing, or what type of context they are being given to deal with the experience in its aftermath.

If my girls were younger, I would not let them go.

I agree, as parents we need control.

This is something that could effect them even into adulthood.

Even adults, have a difficult time with paranormal experiences, and the theories of.

Wow. It also doesn't help that the spelling and grammar are pretty bad.

I'm not such a great speller myself. But, even I noticed. /laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='^_^' />

In all, I think the the teenagers will be fine.

Keeping in mind the parents have to sign, their involvement follows.

This is where the problems MAY start, the crazy my child is better than your child parents.

The attitude exists, in sports, acting, ballet, and horse competition from my experience.

I don't think this would be any different.

Of course, most parents know how to conduct themselves at their children's events.

It only takes a few.

I copy & pasted the ad below, that an acquaintance posted on another site.

I understand that there is a wide market & audience for paranormal entertainment but what do you think of this?

Is this just harmless entertainment or the exploitation of naive people to make a quick buck?

Hi Everyone,

Note from Director Debbie

Welcome to out New club! I hope everyone takes advantage of joining us for an exciting 2010

The Teen

Summer Program Camp. It will last 9 weeks durring summer vacation. My goal as Director of Teen Extreme is to have the

most imazing summer. When I was a teen I had my first experence, I was so frightened, I sat with all the lights on for hours. I decided one day so many people love doing this as adults.

What about the kids?

Well here we are a club for kids. Teenagers can learn from professionals and also participate in some of the most fun and frightening games. I am really excited because Producers Joe and Craig are filming the piolet in May 2010. We want parents to participate and be a part of there childs experences. I know that people have some skeptic views but if I had the idea to help kids learn about this feild of many. I hope that we can help the kids do better threw a common intrest. There isnt many places a teen can go these days with out running into drugs of worse. I can guarentee this is a safe place for kids to learn something scientific and intresting and also and maybe make a life time of friends.

As a paranormal Investergater I will be hands on training. We will have a nurse on site. All staff back ground is checked. Thanks for taking time to read this!
