[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20 is above the amount of hours experts say students can work without affecting grades. Working is fine. Not all kids are into school activities and sports. So maybe 10 hours is reasonable. Personally, I think 14 is younger than I think is reasonable if money isn't an issue.[/quote] Thanks, that's a good point to consider since grades are most important for a student. I don't think I would have a problem with her working a few hours a week once she's older, maybe 16. I have seen that be good for some of my friends' children develo0img responsibility and stronger college applications, so maybe 10 hours would be a good compromise. Our family is not having any money problems and currently she gets an allowance every week for spending money.[/quote]
