Sam I think it's time for you to get a summer job. When I was your age, I started working at my pool. I hated it and I didn't have any friends there. However, I saved money and I learned how to work hard.
Mom, I really don't have time to work this summer. I am going to go to summer school and I need to practice skateboarding. Also I want to go to the lake with Jeremy.
Well. How are you going to pay to go to the lake? You are getting too old for us to give you money. You're not a young kid anymore. Also, college is very expensive these days. You should start saving money now. College is only 3 years away.
OK, I'll apply for some jobs this weekend. Can you help me fill out job applications?
