[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I encouraged my sons to work summers in high school and during college. As I wrote all the tuition checks, I thought it was fair for them to earn their spending money for the following year.  Some think your exhausted student would take the summer to read novels, but I am betting social media and gaming would win out.  I may be older, but think a summer hourly job is good for kids to learn to listen to their boss, show up on time and how to treat the public.  I complained once to my dad about a job I had during college.  He told me that the only thing I had to learn there was that I didn’t want to do this job the rest of my life.  He was right.[/quote]

My dd worked 45 hours a week this whole summer and took a few classes. She also read novels, hung out with friends, and laid on the couch scrolling social media. Sorry your kids have bad time management. [/quote]

Sorry your kid is bipolar.[/quote]

Sorry your kid is lazy. [/quote]
