It was about the third week in June last year. My 15yearold 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. It was the middle of the ____ when the sound of his computer games woke me up again. I couldn't ___ that any more and decided it was time for him to get a summer job. I got on the computer and found a lifeguard certification class that ____ the next day, and a company that ____ teenagers to guard their pools. From that day I woke him up at 8 a.m. every day for him to ____ the class. At first, he continued to complain that I was ____ his summer. But by the end of the week, he was actually ____ going. He learned something about first aid, figured he really could ____ someone from drowning, and got some ideas on how to ____ work for a living. 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 fulltime 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! Even if your kid is super ____ with finals and afterschool activities and doesn't have time, you can ____ job information for him. Whether it is an ice cream store, a movie ____, or a summer camp, you can ask if they are hiring ___ for the summer. After your kid gets a job, pay attention to the ____ to make sure he is never late.
