Going away to camp, a stay in the hospital or a vacation at grandma's…
Most kids get homesick at one time or another, but researchers say the condition is preventable and treatable.
According to a new study, the intensity of homesickness for first-time campers was lowered by half if their parents talked about the separation ahead of time.
