Comment from Janet Foor
Sometimes we wonder how we survived our youth and how our children survived. Glad it all turned out well and no one was injured and you all lived to tell the tale.
Well done.
Blessings

I feel blessed that they didn't get hurt that night. As a teacher I thought my child might never do that. Oops, I know better now.
Comment from Harry Smith
Beautifully written is this short story with lots of imagery and the picture selection went very good with the story. I really enjoyed the read and will be back. Have a great Easter.

Good luck to you with this one in the competition.

thank you so much. Truth is funny, it might not have been at the time, but I love hearing about this from my two grown ups today.
Comment from w.j.debi
I bet the two boys were shaking in their boots for several days, and also laughing about what they did and the narrow escape they made from the two big monsters that got out of that car. Whew!
Well told with an excellent mixture of description and dialogue.
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from aryr
This was absolutely great to read. I could easily envision the event the way you described it. I am sure at 10 years of age both Jeff and Nik were terrified of the two burly men. I can also understand the men's anger and justifiably so. But I will admit it sure was funny to read about. I have no idea how those two boys kept their secret for so long. Well done, thank you for sharing and good luck.

Comment from Swampfox1
Very nice storyline. Great for fiction. I like especially that the relative pays for the move to a place where help is available. That seldom happens in real life, very seldom. Great story. Thanks for sharing.

Hmm, I just went back and edited, this is non-fiction. I guess somehow I put the wrong category.

This is a very interesting story you have penned for the "My Child Would Never Do That" contest. You used very good descriptive words and very cute imagery from your words and the art work. Best wishes in the contest. Teri
