[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious as to other's thoughts on this. The parents of teens in our neighborhood have been advertising shoveling services their kids will provide during this snowstorm. I see the working hard and making money lesson in this, but some of it seems a bit tacky on the parent's part. One mother sent out an email instructing those interested to call for quotes! Its a teen shoveling snow! And others were saying the going rate is $20 to clear a sidewalk. [b]What happened to doing the work and being polite enough to either just do it out of kindness or be gracious enough to take whatever might be offered?[/b] Thoughts? [/quote] Um, when was this? On TV? My husband cleared our neighbor's front steps because he was already out there anyway and they have a new baby. I would not expect the same from a teenager trying to earn a few extra bucks shoveling.[/quote]
