[quote=Anonymous]At 14 I was babysitting every weekend during the school year and in the summer I babysat an 8 year old every day full time. It was awful! But I made a commitment and my mom and dad wouldn't let me quit. I got great grades, played 2 sports and did the school play and still worked about 15 hours/week through high school - mostly babysitting, cashier at a grocery store, filing papers at a doctor's office, and a waitress at the diner. I also volunteered at the hospital, was very active in youth group, and taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School. Summers were a lot more hours. But I loved to work and was always busy! My parents made me save for college and I paid my own car insurance, gas, other fun stuff I wanted. My HS boyfriend and other friends worked with me at some of the jobs so it was always fun. [/quote]
