#WordoftheDay Story - Week Two - Culpable by Association

Again, I missed a couple days....  Stupid Phone - LOL

*****************************************

In <strong>hindsight</strong> Charley knew that he should have steered clear of the <strong>motley</strong> group of wayward boys, but he had so badly wanted to fit in somewhere.  His home life was terrible.  His dad had hit the road years ago and his mom was always to busy entertaining and living the high-life to even pay attention to him (or his two younger sisters for that matter.

For the longest time, Charley had been very <strong>astute</strong> to the fact that his sisters well-being was his responsibility.  It's wasn't as if there mother was showing any concern to their breaking curfew and being out all hours of the night.  He knew he needed to set an example, but the hassle of being his sisters' keeper, and trying to be the parent, became a <strong>tribulation</strong> he was finding hard to handle.

When the boys began to speak in terms of breaking and entering, Charley knew he'd be <strong>culpable</strong> by association and new he had to get out of the group fast.
