[quote=Anonymous]My oldest started working the summer he was 15 (and that was during covid). He lifeguards and coaches. Kid #2 is 15 this summer and has a job lifeguarding and another one teaching swim lessons. Her peers who are not guarding are working at camps, hostessing at restaurants, and working in ice cream shops. Sports camps are a great place to start if your child has some skills. They learn so much when working. How to plan their schedule. How to deal with bosses and coworkers. How to talk to customers, even those who are difficult. Then, they learn how to fill out a tax form and deposit a check. And when they've earned the money, they see exactly how long it takes to work for that Starbucks drink or Lululemon shorts. Let your child work. If you want her to hang out with friends, they will likely be at work, too![/quote]
