[quote=Anonymous]Only during the Summer in our house. Their #1 job during the school year is school. Then we focus on activities (sports, clubs, volunteering). Their friends with jobs really do blow their money on food and clothes or video games and sneakers (if a boy). The "jobs" they can have during the school year is babysitting (for DD) and DS does yard work/shoveling for elderly neighbor who pays him. DS (14) really wants to get a job when he turns 15 to work at the local movie theater with some friends. DH and I are considering it, but we've told him it would be Friday-Sunday only and your employer would have to understand that or not hire you. Might make DS wait another year as he's the one who really has to put a lot of studying and work in to make good grades. School comes easier for DD. [/quote]
