Your point can really be expounded on a lot. I am one of those people who, as a kid, hunted various types of game. I also worked a summer as a 17 year old at ritewood egg in southern idaho. Although I wasn't butchering animals, the mental toll of watching where the 2-dollar-a-dozen eggs came from was more noticeable than hanging and gutting a deer in the woods. I have no issues with children (14-18) having jobs, but there are industries we should strive as a society to keep them from. I wouldn't want kids working in animal food production for the same reasons I wouldn't want them in coal mines. It is important to consoder that those _reasons_ to start to dissipate as one matures and gets older and able to hold their own. As a society we really should be striving to give kids the best opportunities to engage in constructive play and school before jobs in my opinion. Not that my opinion matters at all though...
