This cartoon conveys the idea that we really never have a break from the reality of life. The two boys in this cartoon have shirts and hats that state different camps they went to over their "vacation." Even though its called a vacation we are still accountable for not falling behind or staying active. When I say the word "we" I mean today's society or, more specifically, the youth of today's society as protrayed in this cartoon. The audience of this cartoon can be for both the youth and adults of today's society. In many instances, parents and students disagree on the term "vacation." Vacation for students typically means that they are not accountable for any school work, and they have the freedom to do as they please. On the other hand, some, not all, parents see "vacation" as being off of school but maybe not free from all activities like "Summer Leadership Camp." This cartoon was "written" by Mark Thompson for USA Today.
