Though Billy ended up getting an enema from Mrs. Wilkins once a week, it wasn’t the enemas he remembered most from that summer. It was something else which happened at the end of his first week. The two boys had come home at 8:45 after promising to be back in time for a 7:30 dinner. By the time they arrived, it was already getting dark, the dinner was cold and Mrs. Wilkins was worried and angry.   After scolding the boys and listening to their lame excuses, Mrs. Wilkins said, “Johnny, as soon as we finish dinner, Mommy’s going to take you down to the basement for a little chat. You need a firm reminder about getting home on time. Since I also specifically asked you to be home on time, Billy, it’s clear you also need some sort of discipline. Why don’t we call your mother and see what she wants me to do.” Without waiting for an answer, Mrs. Wilkins picked up the phone and called Billy’s mother.
