[TexasTowelie]

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania college student got a reminder to take out the trash when his mother sent him some garbage in a care package.

Eighteen-year-old Connor Cox tells WHTM-TV that his mother sent two boxes to him at Westminster College in New Wilmington last month.

One box contained food and other goodies. The other contained garbage.

When he called to ask whether that was a mistake, Cox’s mother, Connie, told him, “No, that’s the trash you were supposed to take out” during a recent visit home.

2. Yes,

but the box of garbage is going to sit in his dorm room for the remainder of the semester since he will be so busy studying.

That's what mothers are for.

4. Good for Mom!

Smart mom. Some kids need this kind of encouragement to get their acts together, and I'll bet the kid never forgets this lesson in responsibility.
