A Final Push To Finish

Local teen despite struggles and distractions is able to finish mowing lawn


A sweaty and tired Richard Johnson breathed a heavy sigh as he looked at the last stretch of lawn.  He takes a deep breath as he musters up what little energy he has left, curses a few times under his breath and begins to push forward with all his might to finish the remainder of his weekend chores so that he can play with his friends.

"His Mom is always making him do stuff around the house, like mowing the lawn and cleaning his room."  Johnson's friend James tells us.  "My great uncle is a lawyer, and I'm pretty sure she's breaking some kind of child labor laws by making him do all of this stuff."

Mrs. Johnson was unavailable to comment at the time, but her husband claims that she has no intention of reducing the amount of chores she forces her children to endure.
