Please don't take this as belittling Anjell, because it isn't meant to be, but... a jumprope? In a
guy's closet? Are you serious?!
He might be able to explain away a
normal rope (I'm learning to tie knots like a boy scout, mom! It's for an arts and crafts project at school that got cancelled, mom!) if found with it, but a jump rope?! That'd be a good idea for a girl, but a teenaged boy? No way!!! Not unless it was one of those types sports jocks occasionally use, and not unless Josh happens to
be one himself (he ain't gonna fool his own mom for a second if he isn't - especially if asked to use it to jump!). I'd much sooner take a chance with regular clothesline, which is easier to hide (less garish color than most jumpropes *I've* seen), easier to explain if found, and lots cheaper anyway!
Incidentally Josh, if you have any interest in arts and crafts at all, learn at least the basics of how to make things involving rope. That way you improve your rope tying/weaving skills, and your mom won't question why the hell you have rope around if you're seen with it! You wouldn't even have to hide it then! You'd accomplish two worthwhile Tugs goals at the same time!

For instance, by age 16 I developed a sudden interest in making rope baskets for hanging potted plants. It fooled *my* mom completely!

Dare to be different... and make a difference.
