I support this petition because kids need money too so we can buy stuff our parents won't buy like a cell phone a lap top and stuff like that.So if you know of any jobs a 13 year old can have e-mail me.
Yes i support this petition. I need some money man...... Just tryna save up for a 50$ game is hard these days. I gt 2 dollars per hour in mowing peoples lawns last year i got 75 dollars the whole summer but i am hungry for more. My parents r rich and i want part to
I support this petition because kids need money for school trips and fopr new clothes and an occasional treat but we just dont get it unless its your birthday!
im sick of it when you do chores you get like 50 cents, I NEED MORE!
i am ready for a job. My mum has been a waitress since i was born, i know the rules i can set up tables carry plates and remember orders. i want a job!
i am really sick and tired of not being able to work at a normal job. i mean i dont want to be taken advantage of, but not being able to work is just lame. i cant even do my homework on a desent computer because i cant afford internet, and all of the time i ask for a job everyone says that you cant work until your 16, 18, and sometimes even 21. i mean seriously come on. your parents want you to save your money for something you really want, but it is kind of hard to save up nothing. we just moved to virginia from hawaii, and i only have like three pairs of desent clothes now cause i have no money, and my mom says we will get some like two dollar shirts. please help all kids our age. we have lifes to you know.
I'm really sick and tired of not being able to work! I'm only twelve and I'm thinking of always selling something like bracelets, but I would have to make like hundreds just to get about over 1,000 dollars. I don't really get a weekly allowance like some kids, but I sometimes do get money. I want a bookcase, DVD/CD holder, cell phone, and a lot of other things. I totally agree with this concept!
I support this petition 100%
i want an ipod, and i think i could definately handle a proper job,if we want something our parents won't buy us, then we need to earn some money. some jobs are really easy, but owners(shopkeepers) are too lazy to do em, so if they're easy we could do em! and get paid.
it would make everybody's life easier.
I support this petition. GOD I AM FED UP OF BEING BROKE N HAVING 2 ASK MY DAD FOR MONEY. IF I ASK FOR 2 MUCH HE SAYS NO SO Y CANT I WORK FOR MONEY N SPEND THAT????
This should change! I'm a 12-year-old who wants a laptop, tablet, digital camera, Ipod, and scanner and how the heck am I gonna get those things? Babysitting? I don't think so! You ask for chores (don't really ask, though XD lol) and ask for money afterwards, but they're like: no, it's your house. keep it clean....I'd love to work at a HYVEE or a pet place. That'd be fun and I'd make money! Adults think we're just kids, but we are smart and very responsible! Parents are always like: You'll get that for CHristmas or your b-day or something! I don't have enough money to buy my friends X-mas and b-day presents!
I support this petition 100%. We should have jobs. But I do agree we shouldn't to because we would have to pay taxes and we might waste money. Plus there are a lot of financial stuff like medicare and so on. So i change my mind even though i support this petition.
I support this petition. But also, I don;t want the laws to be all the way gone. We don;t want to have to sign a contract where work in sweatshops do we?
i would be intrested in doing anything that has to do with animals. i want money to help my family, friends, and me. sp if you can find a job that sutes me then pleaz contact me.thank you.
i say anyone who signed this is free, free to be who they want and what they want, dont let adults get in your way! speak up and be independent! lead your own life! i believe in anyone who believes in themselves...all for one and one for all!!!
Oh please--go out and ride your bikes and play with your dolls and leave work to the grown-ups. This petition is a symbol of the very retardation that prevents anyone from wanting to hire CHILDREN like you.
i support this petition because i would like a job to help pay rent with my mom for a 1 bedroom apartment we were replaced by a hurricane called katrina and have hardly any money to support a apartment .i would like to have a job to help her pay rent .
I support this petition because i would love to have a job. it teaches us 12 old kids(i am 12!) about hardwork. also i need money to support my paintball team...so i need to buy upgrades and better accesories!!! so im glad i found this
not only do i support this pattition, i would like to say i am 12, i need to do something to do. if kids dont get out they will get fat ang lazy. we need experience.
I support this petition. I'm 14, but when I was 12, I wanted money so I could get the stuff I want. I mean, now that taxes are going up, and pay saying the same, parents dont have alot of money to give children for small things that they want. So I agree that 12 year olds, should get some jobs. None that could hurt you'll of course, but something to get you ready for the future, and put some money in the pockets.
I support this petition. It's not fair that only adults get an abundant amount of money. Kids need money, too. Sometimes adults only let kids buy stuff with their own money.
we support this because we need cash and deon't have an allowance. also ashley i have some words for u. we r 12 and we r not in elementry. we r going into 8th grade soon and then out of middle school. we need money for the basic necessities. like food and clothes when shopping. and plus kids don't play with toys at toys are us. duh! u spelled it wrong! we are not uneducated. so tell us how do u use a punnett square? huh think your so smart now?plus were not little your probably 12 too!
I think it is great for 12 year olds to have a job. You wouldn't go and like make a 12 year old a lawyer you would just like make them work at petland for some extra cash. It also teaches them to be responsible and it can give them experiance for the future.
i dont support this petition,
why do we need 12 YEAR OLDS WORKING?! they are still in elementry mostly.
i think its dumb, what do they need money for?
something they see in toys are us? and the dangers of uneducated 12 year olds the jobs could bring upon them. i dont think that it would be safe for a little 12 year old.
I support this petition because we should be able to work in places as long as its not with alcholol and we would be able to save up for university and stuff like that rather than depending onour parents
I like this petition for the babysitting but not a real job! Thats crazy! Maybe if you like wanted to HELP your mom at the store or something but not acually work, I do like the babysitting though Its not that hard but taking care of a job...thats hard.
And to people who are swearing on here, don't cuz its gay, If you have nothig nice to say don't say anythig at all. I am sure people don't care about people who swear on the internet were everybody goes.
Thanks
avy we are not talking about spectacular plus he's mostly every girls man but yours cause you said that stupid ass **** my friend stephanie is his cousin so you can go eat ****
to stalin we sign this petiton to go against parents not the kids so why is your dumb ass on here talking about under age kids dont need a job ***** you can tell you waiting to grow up don't stunt on the kids name stunt on your own you feo poontha {that means ugly *****}!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so tired of parents saying get you a job if you want this that and the other if there were jobs for kids 12 and up we wouldn't bother our parents for money so the parents will be F***ED if we dont get jobs for ourselves oh and i would like to say thanks to all the kids who supported this petition!
i want to suport the petition by being able to work at the age of 12 i say that because who does not want a job we want money too not justbaldults come on na who wants to sit down with out any money and then you want to go to a store and than you ask your parents for some and they say they dont have any then what you suosse you get NOTHING
If 12ys worked, our nations work force would be surged with little kids who are stupied enough to work for miminuim wage. Than all older persons would lose their job because employers are greedy bastards, and so our economy would be destroyed, and millions would be jobless and poor. A catastrophic repeat of the Great Depression would insue, as well as choas and mass panic. Except unlike the last Great Depression, the entire world would be evan more effected, and possible war and internatinal riots may be started, and the little 12 year old work force would be no longer nesseary, since the world has been lost to fear. Although that senairo was a little extreme, its a possible one. And that concludes my arguemint, 12 year olds cant work, other wise our world would be ****ed.
I support this petition.Im tired of my dad having to pay off all the bills i want to help and have some extra cash for college.And Stalin please i mean common they could make a restiction of jobs we can have so you sit yo ***** *** down before i decide to kick you in the ass!
