Kissing campers get kicked out
A 15-year-old Connecticut girl was kicked out of sleep-away camp for kissing a boy. A lawsuit filed by her parents says that after learning of the “innocent” kiss, the director of Camp Emerson in Massachusetts called the girl a “slut” and a “tramp,” and expelled her and the boy from the camp. The lawsuit says many other campers have been caught kissing without getting kicked out.
