It's summer again
Well it's time for summer again. In just two hours my children will be home from their last day of school. This year is going to be alot different from the ones before. My oldest just finished his sophmore year. He's sixteen and I'm a little torn. I'd like to spoil the boy and let him have a fun summer but getting your first job the summer of your sixteenth birthday is something everyone in my family has always done.
This is one of the times when parenting is hard. He doesn't need to work for the money but I've always believed that its best to learn early what working is like. In top of that he needs to start thinking about his future. He is only going to be a junior but he will be in all Senior level classes. If he takes an extra class at the local Junior college he will be able to graduate at the end of next year.
With College just around the corner there is a lot of research to do.
