Dear Blake,
I’m a working single mother with three teenage boys. School is about to be let out for the summer, and I was wondering if you have suggestions what I can have them doing until they go back to class in September.
Signed, Harriet

Dear Harriet,
Being a working single mother is difficult, so my hat goes off to you. Having three teenage boys that can be very creative on how to entertain themselves, is a troubling combination. If you are a Christian, it will serve you best, that every day that you come home from work and the house is still standing, for you to praise God! If you have access to a television or a radio while you’re a t work, keep them tuned in to the news, listening for stories regarding fires. Also, you should have the phone numbers of any reasonably priced well established criminal defense attorneys, in the likelihood that you’ll need their services over the next few months. But even if your sons avoid any run-ins with the law, boys will be boys. And the odds are, sometime next spring, you’ll become a grandmother. I hope this helps.
Blake
