Cruel and Unusual Punishment

Josh didn't know what to do. He can't believe his mother could be so cruel. Just because he had a tendency to slack off and chase girls rather than focus on his school work was no excuse for such a cruel and unusual punishment. It all started a month after his sixteenth birthday. His mother caught him in bed with some girl from his math class. After kicking the girl out his mother berated him, telling him she is too young to be a grandmother and he should know better. She then started crying and Josh started to actually feel kind of guilty. He apologized to his mother and said he would make it up to her. Without saying anything she stormed off. When he came downstairs later for dinner his mom was waiting for him smiling.

"Sweety, remember you said you would make it up to me? Well I thought of just the way to do that" she said, putting a laptop in front of him. It was opened on LifeSwapper.com. "LifeSwapper? why would you want to be me?" he asked. His mom just chuckled, "not you sweety, just step into your shoes for a while, it'll be fun. I get to be young again and you get to be in charge. It'll only be for a little while." "How long?" he asked, "a week?" "I think we should swap first and just wait and see, I already have it all set up, you just have to accept." He looked at the page open on the laptop and sure enough it was all there, the option to swap had been set to indefinite, meaning both of them would have to agree to swap back. Anxiously he agreed.

Moments later he was thirty years older with dyed blonde hair and back pain. H e looked in the mirror and staring back at him was a woman that looked like she could be his moms sister. That was three weeks ago, and Josh was beginning to worry his mom wasn't going to swap back. He went upstairs to ask about it and caught her new son in bed with some floozy. After kicking her out he spent 5 minutes straight giving out to her son about how could he be so irresponsible. When he was done all her new son had to say was "Sorry Mom." How the tables have turned.
