‘My daughter refused to pee all holiday because there was a spider’

Great fun, going camping with the whole family. Until your kid yells at half the campsite because she saw a spider.

Elise (33), mother of Jasmine (4):

“Twice I have camped: the first and the last time. Everyone said beforehand how much fun it would be for children. That is true. That is, if they don’t suffer from phobias and fears.

Phobias

For example, last May Jasmijn saw a tiny spider in the laundry room, started screaming and didn’t stop. She whined and screamed the half camping together. I was scared to death. She refused to pee there for the rest of the holiday, let alone wash. Every time I took a step towards the bathroom, Jasmine raised a throat.

In the end I only got her on a bucket in the caravan put to pee and bought diaper pants for the big errand. From now on only a stone house including bathroom for our drama queen.”
