C Today, we?re sending Sally away for a week of summer camp. She never actually asked to go. It was all my idea to sign(報名 ) her up. She?s nearly 12, and I notice that I?m with my child nearly 24 hours a day. Living on a farm without any neighbors, I?ve chosen a life that is quieter than a typical family?s. But rather than longing for space away from me, Sally has increasingly dependent on my presence. What frightens me most is that she has bee a “minime”. She pursues my hobbies, my dreams and my opinions. And that?s why I pulled her to the summer camp, a nearby wilderness camp called Hawk Circle. After we ate, we drove to Hawk Circle. Once there, we got a tour of the grounds and were introduced to Sally?s fellow campers. Sally stood by the group of children, holding my hand, horror in her eyes, trying to work up the courage to join in a game of soccer. “Mom, I need you for a few more minutes,” she told me, holding my hand tightly. 1 pulled away and walked up to one of the camp workers. “Excuse me,” I said loudly. “I?d like to introduce my daughter to you. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.” He came over to talk to Sally, and I kissed on her cheek and then my husband and I disappeared before Sally realized we were gone. It was not until I drove home that I finally felt it. A piece of my soul had been taken from my body. I began to shake. Tears streamed down my face. It took every bit of my strength to keep driving forward. When we arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path. I want Sally to have a chance to find herself out of my shadow. I don?t want to see only myself in my child. I warn to learn who she is. After 12 years of constantly being together. I want to finally meet my daughter for the first time. 28. Why did the author sign her daughter up for the summer camp? A. Because her daughter asked to go there. B.
