When you sleep somewhere else—like at a summer camp or a friend's house—you know you're in for a fun time. It can be exciting to get away from the same old bed in the same old room in the same old house. 9. It's called being homesick.

Some kids may feel more homesick than usual if their parents get divorced(离婚) or if someone they loved has recently died.
Here are some ideas to help you feel less homesick.
