What are they created for?
The main reason for creating such camps for teens is the right learning work. In a few years, teenagers will finish school. After receiving a certificate of basic secondary education, the young man himself must decide which profession to choose and what to do in the future. If in his childhood the correct attitude towards work is laid, he will quickly find himself in the future professional life and achieve good results in the profession.
When organizing labor camps for teenagers, not only an educational goal, but also a moral one is pursued. When a child starts to work a little himself, he is easier to understand how hard money gets. As a rule, after visiting such camps, children become more tolerant of their parents. The psyche of a teenager changes somewhat, he values adult work and treats his parents more respectfully.
