[quote=Anonymous]What HS kid in the DMV with decent grades in honors and aP has 20 hours a week. If it wasn't an economic necessity, I would let a 14 year old babysit, pet sit, or do something like PP's son who runs a scoreboard. Summers, fine. Junior year, I would allow up to 10 hours a week, depending on schoolwork and extracurriculars. But a HS kid's job is, first and foremost, schoolwork. Then, spending some time with the family and some amount of social time and extracurriculars. If all this happens and there is extra time, sure. Paid work is good. But in this area, it is hard to find that extra time. [/quote]
