[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She should "feel" the affects of not having a job. Determine a small amount of money each week that you will give her, and then no more. When she is hungry for more $, she may find a job. But jobs are hard for teens to find. And [b]she may be scared[/b]. And [b]she may need help -from you[/b]- finding one. [/quote] Then she is not ready to do anything on her own. When I was 14 and one day, I asked my parents to drive me to the local supermarket so I could get a job application to become a cashier there. The only help I needed in filling it out is asking for my social security number. The only "help" she should need is a pep talk to put on her big girl panties and get out there and do it. Freaking pathetic. Stop helicoptering children.[/quote]
