At one time or another, everybody gets a job of some sort. The first job usually isn't the greatest one but it is a start. The age to start has always been a big controversy. Many people start in their teen years. Teens usually don't have any job experience and so they get the jobs that nobody wants or the ones that require little to no training. Everybody needs to start somewhere and by having teen employment, jobs that nobody else wants can get filled. Teen employment is good and it teaches teens important skills they will need for life but, this interferes with school. However, teens with jobs while in high school are more likely to succeed sooner in life.

When a person gets their first job they are usually in high school. This means less time for homework and extracurricular activities, right...
