But it‘s the average teenager most of us !’om-ud th and the average teenager flourishes best in company _ _ For the seifâ€"contained teenagerâ€"a rare bird, I admitâ€"there are plenty of ways to amuse oneself; volunteer summer camp work, camping it. They‘re all schoolboys and most of them have summer jobs, either on weekends or odd days during the week, as carâ€"washers or hashâ€"slingers or as carryâ€"out boys in the supermarket. Social background doesn‘t seem to make any difference since these boys come from a variety of homes, some better off than ours, some where both parents work. One of them is the Lmdï¬olouldmtilt.onohuumbmmmmmndqjoyl them all. Another boy has four younger children in the house and can‘t stand being at home. None of them are brilliant scholars, although all ‘passed this year except oneâ€"the nicest boy of the bunch, and the one who is an omnivorous reader. As you can understand, I find them a fascinating group to observe at close quarters. We like them all and get on well them; they seem to like us and to be grateful for a place to o. enough, we have less trouble communicating with other than with Jeremy, but this may be par for the course, ‘ as he finds it hard to communicate with anyone. As most readers know, we now live in a good residential area in Aurora, in the old part of town; one of those lovely treeâ€"lined streets where all the houses are old and rambling with shady verandahs and m:ndnt Our street is mainly inhabited by retired couples, schoolâ€" : local businessmen and a minister or two. It‘s understandable that they don‘t all relish the idea of having what amounts to a teenager‘s élub on the street, although in defence I must say that there‘s no drinking, all activities break up by 11 p.m. and the kids don‘t interfere with anyone or anyone else‘s property. They may stand and talk and fool around in our driveway before they disperse, but no one is really inconvenienced by them, unless you consider that the street‘s status is damaged merely by their exuberant presence. We understand that some people do feel this M no one stops to ask â€" where else can they go? The answer probably is that most people don‘t care where they go, as long as they‘re not ‘bothered by them. If they‘re at our place, however, they‘re not hanging Ep\mntlflnpluuordrivin‘nmundlookingfor.omet.hin,gtodo. with other teendgers and even in a pleasant town like ours, there is no provision for teenagers during the summer. The swimming pool is too Ew every day with small children, so that it‘s literally impossible to and the deep end is reserved for diving only. There is no cinema; F dances; no clubroom. The kids hang around the town‘s biggest dairy Bar in the evenings because their friends come there too and it‘s central EM'ln-uueofnch'm. What the kids need is a clubroom during f summer, which has room for a weekly dance, and two other rooms where they could sit and read, play cards, play their instruments or just horse around with their friends. It needs to be supervised by adults who like teenagers, who can communicate with them and who are people they ean like and respect. Coffee and cookies should be available for a small Lï¬tllmd it should be open from 10 in the morning until at least 10 p.m. meven days a week. Yes, I know the biggest problem‘â€" where are you z: to get even two dedicated adults to devote their days to this, for s months of the year, for probably no more than $60 p.w. I think it would be futile for a church group to run this, since most teenagers regard the church with some suspicion, but there is a real need for this who vary in age from fifteen to eighteen, and they bring along visiting friends, cousins, etc. from time to time. They arrive on foot, on Hondas or on borrowed bikes and when Jeremy has a good band practice going in the spare room, we get teenagers from up and down the street who come in to listen, even though they‘re not members of the group. One might I counted eighteen jammed into the room to listen to whntwlu only one of the teenagers belongs to us Our 15 year of have made our house their headquarters and we‘re let them, although at times it feels as if we‘re living in a railway We also have the friends that our girls bring home, but these ‘t come in such numbers. Of course, the wear and tear on cookies and or milk and brownies, is pretty high and the driveway gets littered with cignrette butts and gum wrappers, but they‘re a good bunch of kids we don‘t have any real problems with them. Sure, it‘s inconvenient times (though if we are going to have our own friends in, we let the know and they stay away), and some nights I feel that if I have to listen to "Walk don‘t run" once mose, played on two guitars and drums (helped by two amplifiers), I shall leave home. Sometimes Jeremy has three of them to sleep in the tent in the garden overnight (I‘m thankful now that it‘s a small tent), which means breakfast for four tousled teenagers. The group has a nucleus of about eight permanent members, ‘The boys are a shaggyâ€"looking lot and most of them smoke, but their hearts are in the right place. Jeremy also smokes furtively when he thinks I‘m not looking and we have an unspoken gentleman‘s agreement that I won‘t mention it as long as he doesn‘t make it too obvious â€"I suppose this was inevitable since all his peers seem to have the habit, but I regret : © I know that most of today‘s middleaged parents grew up without ‘benefit of clubrooms and other razzmataz, but this is a different generaâ€" tion with different needs.

There‘s no contradiction in this statement, because rehearsing for a comedy or a farce is serious business.
