Yeah, minimum age in the US (most states) is 14 yrs old. I wanted a job so bad when I was a kid. I grew up super poor so I never had an allowance. I got a job as soon as a could and I could buy my own things.
My own kid also got a job early, I told them they didn't have to but they wanted to earn their own money (I was super proud of the reason). They worked for a few years, took a year or so off, then after graduating high school, bought their own car. I'm actually so proud of my kid. Kind of a smart ass sometimes but like... That's because they're me too. So like.. 🤙
And there it is. Let's not fix poverty or anything.
unreal that SendMePhotos chose to get a job instead of storm into the white house and demand poverty be fixed OR ELSE
🤷🏽 Builds character and I make more money than what my goal was from a teenager. I wasn't forced into it. #NoRagrets
Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with a 14 year old working a few hours a week if they want to. Lemmy hivemind is pretty fucking stupid sometimes
That’s exactly how I looked at 14. Internet detectives don’t know jack shit
Case in point ^
No it isn’t. 14 is legal age to work in most US states
Yeah I'm saying you're on the Internet and also don't know shit
