       Whose job is it anyway?

       Don't worry, even native English speakers have trouble following
       this.  Go slow, it does make sense!
       This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody,
       Anybody and Nobody.
       There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure
       that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but
       Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was
       Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but
       Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that
       Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could
       have.
       Get it?

       Got it! So true!
       BTW a good opportunity to practice those pronouns.

       For example,
       Some children fool around in the train. Everyone thinks somebody
       would stop them, which Anybody could have disciplined the
       children's behavior.  Somebody got angry about that, because it
       was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but
       Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that
       Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could
       have.
       Thus, the children are free for going crazy anywhere.
