I don't quite think that by sending your kids there that it is equivalent to a month long party at the Playboy mansion.

I know many people who send their kids to Moshava camps. Yes it may be more liberal and yes there are boy and girl interactions. If you don't want your kid in a mixed environment then don't choose the camp. But some of you may be a bit naive as to think that hanky panky only goes on among teenagers who are of a MO background or attend B'nei Akiva programs and camps.

Hasn't anyone heard of "inappropriate" behaviour among more chareidi crowds, at either yeshivas or camps? I have.

Let's not condemn Moshava so quickly. It's not such a bad place.

To prevent this thread from becoming a lashon-hara fest I am going to lock it.

OP, best of luck on your decision.

If anyone has anything to add you can PM me or another mod.

Chavamom Pm'd me to add:

"A co-ed sleep away environment is going to have nisyonot. NCSY acknowledges this and that is why they have "shomrim" that are stationed to keep the boys and girls apart at night during shabbatons. Boys and girls past a certain age have hormones regardless of hashkafa."
