[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I did not know of any college student who was working for money in my country of origin. Either you are too poor and you do menial job, or you go to college/trade school and study. Around the world, that is the system. Why did you think that US should be different?" Your country must miss out on some brilliant kids who were deemed too poor for college. Is that India ?[/quote] I met seasonal young workers from eastern europe at a small town resort in VA. I do think teens in other parts of the world work as well as here. It's not because the family lacks, it's more for the experience of dealing with lots of different types of people if it's a retail job, understanding the discipline of showing up and being willing to do what everyone else is doing, and the travel opportunity (definitely summer teens worldwide working at the national parks). And oh yeah, the extra spending money that is their own to do as they wish and the camaraderie with other teens is great. India's is a caste system and assigns way too much behavior to status. Why emigrate to another country if you insist on bringing over the ritual behavior and beliefs that continues to bog your country in 3rd world status?[/quote]
