My DS is 14 and is desperate to take on a part-time job for some extra pocket money. He doesn't want to do babysitting and he has tried getting a local paper delivery job but there are no vacancies at the moment.
Other excuses he has come up against is 'we can't take on that young due to H & S' and yet kids are allowed to work from age 13 in this country; with some rules, but it is allowed.
Can you tell me what have your young teens have managed to find work-wise so that I can encourage him and give him some other thoughts. I had a PT job at 14 and it never did me any harm!
