I did a share of standing behind the computer chair reading off card numbers, usually for mail-order teeshirts with band logos on em. When he got to be sixteen and driving on his own (in our state that means after months and interminable months of always having an adult in the car with him) we gave Number One Son a credit card so he could buy gas. We already foot the bill for car & insurance, so no biggie. He promptly got a fast-food job and drove himself to work. He is absurdly responsible now that he is off at college, and when we check the bill it is always for textbooks, or warm clothes, or something.

May such good fortune be more general.
