This may be crying inconsolably for an extended period of time as soon as they return home, or it might be a lack of capacity to deal with anything unexpected no matter how minor it may seem.

While this can be heartbreaking to see, it is even more heartbreaking knowing that some kids do not feel safe showing these emotions to any adults and are instead having to cope in isolation. These are the kids crying themselves to sleep or finding unhelpful coping mechanisms.
