Growing up, every summer vacation for me was basically like being in quarantine: the miserable florida sun was oppressive, so I'd be inside all day, and I lived so deep in the suburbs that I couldn't go anywhere without getting my parents to drive me, and with 2 working parents I mostly didn't bother. With a bit of experience in this, I can say rather easily: during the school year, getting a chance to avoid going to school is wonderful. But months of being stuck at home becomes boring and miserable.
