<p>What are your kids doing during the summer? </p>
<p>I work long hours, particularly in July and August, and while I’m OK with my son staying home alone for a few days or even a week, I’m hesitant to have him home every day for weeks at a time. </p>
<p>My son’s first choice is to get a job, but around here that’s hard at 14. We’ve also talked a volunteer job, summer camp, and summer school. I’m curious if other people have other more creative ideas.</p>
