Like the title says....so let me xplain this problem

First of all let me say i am rather underweight and my doctor is really nagging me about it....so heres the story

Due to me being underweight my doctor sees me like every 2-4 weeks sometimes every 2 week or sometimes jjust once a month..

So if anyone is underweight they will no that they basiclly in simple terms tell you to eat steadly and cut out any unnessary excerise but i do take sevral classes that give you a lot of exerise like i take 2 martial arts classes and a parkour class and i do a 30 minute morning run... so as he keeps saying i should try and cut down on my exerise but i dont want to so i said i would start by cutting out the morning run..

so heres where the issue really is:

since i like the outdoors i really began to miss being stuck in the house in the morning so i decided to go to a local news agents and see about a paper round and here in the UK we tend to walk our paper round rather than by bike..so i went to the news agents and asked if they had one local and they did but 2 people wanted it me and this other kid (lets call him Bob) so this kid Bob really wanted it but so did I as I really like the outdoors and the exseise.

So after using my persuasive skills i got it....

so the issue is this kid Bob (hes 13) was upset and he wanted it bad now this round is 6 days a week 15 doors and pays £17...so really simple and easy

so this kid Bob really does want it and i really could not care about the money what so ever in the slighteset as me and my family have a lot of it already..

So my main problem is should i give it to him or not...i mean the only thing i know about Bob is that he is from a rather bad area and i asked freinds and he is really rather well...lets just say not that well off on money terms

So should i give him this round or not i will do this week and based on my thoughts and the replies to this post i will say weather or not i will give it to him

So should i give him this paper round

(p.s Sorry for the long post but i wanted to give you guys and girls the full story)

If you can't exercise, why'd you agree to do it? Give it to the kid. If he needs the money, then let him do it.

I say give it too him. You need to cut back on the exercise for a reason. He needs the help. It is a win/win situation.

If you dont need the money i think you should give it to him, he actually needs it. I know you want to walk around and all, but he NEEDs it, you dont.

Well i did what i thought was right in the end and i quit working as a paper boy.... i explained and the guy was ok with it and i said i would like it if he hired that boy that was really wanting to do it and in the end he agreed to do so....so he was happy and so am i (kinda)

Just thought i would let you guys know how it went and what i decided to do

Thanks for the help guys
