My 14 year old brother just got a job at MacDonalds and he says that the majority of the employees are under the age of 18, there is nothing wrong with under 18s working, it gives them experience.
This is exactly how I feel. I’m only 15 and I cannot WAIT to get a real job. I work sometimes in the summer cutting lawns, and I make quite a bit of money. My parents are teaching me how to save money for paying insurance for a future car, which is really exciting. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to get a real job most likely untill I finish high school because I won’t be able to manage all of the schoolwork and actual work all at once. Like you said Brett, there is too much focus on school, and unfortunately I have fallen victim to it.
I can remember when I had a paper route I was tickled to death with the pay. Worked as a farm laborer in high school and even though it was hard work, and I’m not really a big person so it was harder on me than other kids, I was still happy when the work was over and I got paid, plus most farmers also provided a home cooked meal. The biggest thing I learned is that nothing is free and when you buy something with your own money that you worked your butt off to get, you’ll take better care of your stuff. Plus, it gets a person started for living in the REAL world when becoming an adult.
