Why she would be scared because a woman sends her child to a Jewish Day Camp.

I'm NOT Jewish but my Grammie Hannie made sure I could attend summer camp through our JCC so I could have exposure to my heritage. She figured out by the time I was 8 that I wasn't going to be a 'christian' for all of my life. My heart wasn't there. Now I'm a UU.

I partially credit this great experience as a kid with keeping my heart open.

I don't see why someone would be afraid of that.
