[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many of you are clearly so uncomfortable with the idea of just letting your kids be. Exist. They have to always be busy, busy, busy with some outside structured activity. Then you can pat yourselves on the back for being such great parents without ever actually having to parent. The DMV is a sick area. 14 years olds don’t need jobs or volun(told) hours. Just let them be kids for awhile.[/quote] I had a summer job when I was 14 back in the olden days - and I see plenty of younger teens working at places like ice cream shops, stores, etc when we go to other parts of the country on vacation, so it's not just this area. You can work 4 hours a day at a easy summer job and still be a kid.[/quote]
