A/N: this next section is made up of stories about Parker.
"Was that Rebecca on the phone, Booth?"
"Yeah. We have to start working on what to do about Parker's college education. It's a few years away but Rebecca likes to fret about things. We have to figure out if he'll go to college in the US or the UK."
"If Rebecca and her husband are living in the UK it might be a good opportunity for him to study at a university there or elsewhere in Europe."
"One problem is the expense. Universities in some parts of Europe can be expensive. Another problem is that Rebecca's husband is due to be transferred soon and they're not sure what their options are. I think it'll work out better if Parker goes to college in the States, at least for the first two years, but she's not sure that's a good idea."
"Booth, we can afford to help Parker go to school. I received a large advance from my next book."
"We could help, but I think Parker should get a job and pay for part of his education, to teach him some responsibility. Rebecca disagrees. She thinks I should pay for all of it. I also think he should go to a public university but she only wants him to go to a private college. She says he won't be as likely to get drunk or stoned at some fancy school. You and I know that's ridiculous. Most college kids can find a way to get drunk or stoned no matter where they go to school."
"Doesn't he get a choice, Booth? He might want to attend trade school, or work before he goes to college. He could travel around Europe, or even join the military. He's going to have lots of options."
Booth grimaced. "Now I know why we started this discussion 2 years early."
