DEAR ABBY:

My Dad Objects to a Pet Monkey.

My dad said that I could have a pet monkey if I had a nice place for him to stay. So we went to the monkey shop and the person that works thare said that you need to have 100 squared metres of space for the monkey. We don't have than. Then i asked my father if I could get something else. He responded with yes. We went to a fish shop and bought 35 fish and i big aquarium. They did not have the fish in stock so they arrived the next day.

Dear Abby:

My dad objects 

to a pet monkey

Dear Abby: I am 14 years old and my Daddy said to me that If I have finished school, that he would be proud of me.

All my life, I have wanted to finish school as quickly as possible. I asked Mommy and Daddy how I could do that and they said that if you enjoy school, you will finish school quickly. I agreed with that. My daddy also told me that he would be proud of me when I’ve got my driving license. After that, my Mommy said that she will give a party if I have finished everything. So I must stay focused and enjoy school so I can finish school fast.
