Agree

Disagree

Jobs prepare teenagers for later life.

Many college graduates look forward to a satisfying job. But some job interviewers say they want someone with experience.

It is the time to study.

If teenagers start working, they won’t have time to study. They might keep on working to achieve someone else’s dreams. However, they are too young to decide for their future.

- Scarlet, Beijing

Jobs teach responsibility.

Teenagers at 14 and older should be allowed to have part-time jobs. Jobs can teach teenagers responsibility and make teens learn how to work as a team. What’s more, teens who earn money at a young age can learn how to manage personal finances.(财务)

-Tony, Guangzhou

Kids should pay more attention to their education.

According to the survey, students who work more than 15 hours per week might lose interest in school and their grades may drop. This means students might not enter university if they work part-time for a long time.
