anybody meaningfully objects to teenagers working
Beer money for the summer is one thing, having to meaningfully contribute to the household budget because the money that the parents bring in isn't sufficient is another. I do object, children should be in school (and college students should devote themselves to study instead of having to juggle school and a low-wage job).
- woodruffw 3y agoTeenagers haven’t been allowed to buy beer in the US for a few decades! (And I agree completely: it should be an obligation of social welfare, not child labor, to compensate for the family’s ability to put food on the table. This is one of the reasons that most states limit teenagers to half-time or similar roles, which most non-Hoover-affiliated people again don’t object to.)
