Good Intentions
Anne Manning, a divorcee and single parent for twelve years, finds herself increasingly unable to control her rebellious fourteen-year-old son, Billy. As a last resort, she reluctantly arranges to send him to his father, Don, for the summer. Despite a tentative beginning, the arrangement is a surprising success. Billy loses his sullen defiance, Don discovers the pleasures of having a son, and Anne finds renewed confidence in herself. Just when all three have come to terms with their new lives, tragedy strikes, threatening the family's tenuous grasp on happiness.
