Allowing your kids to be outside, doing their own thing for a couple of days is incredibly valuable. To each their own, but kids (and parents) today don't get enough time away from tech and a scheduled lifestyle. Camping is a pretty easy way to be sure they are exposed to letting some of that stuff go for a few days and is hardly a slog like you suggest for anyone who has half decent equipment and some ability to plan and choose locations that fit with what they are hoping to do like biking, hiking, fishing, lazing around etc.

The biggest plus of camping is that you are away from everything else that needs to be done or stresses you out and there's not a single thing you can do about it. Bonus points if you're out of cell coverage.
