My teenage son has a dilemma. His car--an older model recently donated to him by his grandfather--is in need of repair. The boy's convinced that we (notice how his gift of freedom has now become "our" problem) should consider trading it in for something that doesn't cost as much to operate.
This scenario is like living through a classic example of one of life's greatest truths--be careful what you wish for because it may just come true. I had warned my son about accepting the responsibility associated with owning an older vehicle.
