Is it good to talk to the head or it will backfire?
Dd is very popular in school but was always with the same group of girls. She is shy in nature so I was worried sending her to camp the first time. We are OOT and most girls their are from New York.

I think it would depend on why she is unhappy.
Also to consider... is this her first time away? And... she with friends, or alone at camp?
And how long ago did camp start? Bc the first week or so can be hard adjusting

It’s the first week. She went with another girl from her class but not a best friend. It’s the first time in camp. What can I do to help her?

Send her a journal to write down her thoughts. She can have it with her when she calls you on Friday to give you the rundown.
Keep sending emails/faxes each day for the camp to print out and give to her. Write a joke, copy a photo, tell her you love her and to try to enjoy the special acitivies and the vacation you sent her on.
Visiting day is already on Sunday! She can do this and you can too. It must be so hard to hear that she's unhappy!

Listen to her, and empathize. "It sounds to me like you're having a hard time getting adjusted. It must be difficult with all of the girls being from another town. Is there anything you can find in common with them?"
