      Lol it’s absolutely fine and good to have a teenager making money. You’re not sending them fishing for 3 months at a time. There is very little risk to safety or health at a restaurant or grocery store.

        In Europe teenagers can work from a certain age during holidays. It’s very restricted and it should be. At that age they should be focusing on school. If you let those pushing these changes in the USA have it their way you’ll have 10 year olds mining coal again pretty damn soon.
