There was a young child named Timmy who had zero ambition to do any chores around the house.
He had seven brothers and sisters and he thought the others would do his share. The oldest sibling
was seven years older than he was, and being a child in a family of eight children, I guess he
felt he could get away with it. He was the fourth youngest child but certainly this was no excuse
for being lazy.

Sometimes he had to be told more than three times to do something. Finally his mother had had enough.
After telling him four times to do something, she told him there was no dessert for him that night. He put
up a huge crying fit and his mother said, "Timmy, I told you before that if you didn't listen to me,
you wouldn't get any dessert for dinner! Do you think I'm going to keep telling you nine times to do
something?" Well, Timmy was stubborn and this happened to him two more times after that. He finally
learned the lesson the hard way and began to listen to his mother. It was a good lesson for the other
children as well. None of his seven brothers or sisters wanted to go without dessert and they always did their chores after that!

THE MORAL IS: Don't turn your mother into Joan Crawford AND use the geochecker to see if you figured out the puzzle!
