It was about the third week in June last year. My 15?year?old son had already settled into his summer routine:Go to ____ at 2 a. m. and wake up at 1 p.m. only to get back on his computer to play computer games ___ dinner.

Two weeks later, he had a ____ as a lifeguard. He took his responsibility very ____ and never went to work late. This summer, he will be working full?time at a pool. He says a lot of his ____ don't have jobs. And I say that is because their mothers didn't try ____ enough!
