[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really surprised how many people think OP should do this.  This is a 16 year old kid.  I'm assuming OP must have changed the details b/c I seriously can't imagine any law firm giving a 16 year old any kind of meaningful internship- at most they would be working as a legal secretary (and even that is probably a stretch.)  A 16 year old can't be left alone for a week if the family wants to go on vacation.  A 16 year old doesn't cook for themselves.  A 16 year old needs transportation.   I would feel differently if CPS had called and asked the family to take the 16 year old in so he didn't go to foster care.   But the way this situation is presented OP is being asked to take in a child, who will significantly impact their family life, just b/c the kid wants to do something that is objectively of little value.

It's a troll who keeps getting fed. Has OP come back? No reputable law firm has 16-year-old interns. Do you think LAWYERS want the liability of a teenager accidentally finding out confidential information about a client, let alone having a teen driver in their lot with all their fancy cars all summer?[/quote]

Maybe it was an internship with DOGE?

Nah in that case the kid would get $300K and could pay for housing. [/quote]
