[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to HSYP and even there we had time for an 8-hour/week job. There are lots of studies showing that a part-time job is associated with doing better academically. It also teaches good time management. It's also a great way for kids to make friends and get some work experience. At many schools, work is academic (like research or tutoring other students) and looks great on grad school applications. IMO the parents saying they send their kid to college to only study are suckers just like the parents who believe that their high school students need a cell phone in their room to do their homework each night. [/quote] That's funny - my kid has straight A's. More MAGA types on the board, calling people suckers. Why not call us vermin, as well?[/quote] My kid has straight As, too, dual degree in STEM field, and manages to work PT. Maybe teach your kid better time management and study skills. You sure do have a huge chip on your shoulder about this.[/quote]
