What kind of job? I hope not a bone-breaking one. But if very light one an you just need to teach him how to be responsible and self reliant, then it could be ok. But generally, child labor is against human rights/ child rights law!
Should i make my 13 year lod son/daughter get a Job ?
It's depending on where you live, if your family still in Laos, it' would be Ok to make him/her to help out around the house you know, But if you're living in America. 13 year-Old Boys/Grils would be too young to flip burgers or bag groceries. In this day and age, the teenagers expense are increasingly doesn't matter where you live. especially when it come to electronics like PCs, Gameboy/gril. Cell-Phone like that. and when you were your son age, you were eager to make money i think, Right. But, then again, there's a huge difference between your life at 13 and his life now. i was raised by lower midle-class Mom on fixed income while my dad was away for Airforce School in America. and my mom did a great job teaching us the value of monies. i knew in my early teens that if i wanted to buy something like toys, i have to earn it from her by helping her around the house. some of you here did that too right, and now i have one ten year-old daughter and we're teaching her the sameway as our parent taught us. but she doesn't face economic presures like us did, of course we don't give her everything she need. but most of us have gone overboard in buying them thing that were beyond our economic reach as a kids... So anyway, 13 year-old is too young to get a job outside the house. it' against federal law either it in Laos or America, period..
