Loren feels uncomfortable when he sees a blond-haired guy harassing Abby in the lunchroom. Mark tells Loren and Abby that the blond-haired guy is Eddie Dutra (Spader), a teenage drug addict who is the leader of a gang of redneck thugs. Loren helps Abby keep Dutra at a distance. Dutra’s retaliations keep getting more vicious until Dutra forces a showdown at the amusement park by kidnapping Abby. |

Would you work more OR less if you didn't have kids?
The one theory is, if you didn’t have kids, you wouldn’t need to make as much money, so you’d work LESS.
Another theory is, you’d be less encumbered and/or needing to spend quality time with the kids, so you’d have MORE time to work.
I think I’d work less — but more smartly. Currently, I work jobs with some stability — can’t be unemployed with a kid. But if I were childless, I’d be more of an entrepreneur, taking chances. I’d make more cash per hour doing that, so could work less.
But I wouldn’t trade the kid in!
