I am pleased to see a lot of older folks on the fire! I’m confident that generation worked as a kid. I did! Seen on tv where someone from the us going to another country where they grow the cocoa bean. Young kids are working which I support. Isn’t that part of the U.S. problem that kids don’t work and get into trouble?? I worked on weekends burning brush , stacking wood, feed the animals, etc. In high school , I moved sprinkler pipe before going to school. Came home and worked for the neighbors an hour and weekends. I bought my own car, gas, insurance. In the 1970s , I never heard of gangs. I am 64 and see our country going into the toilet. Alan

Gladly, White kids suck. If it weren’t for mex labor, my jobs would be strung out minimum 50% longer.

Well the least you could do is get her some smaller fish to work with, a dollar apiece for those is child abuse ,LOL.

She still needs help flipping them over when they are that size. She makes good money on tips. When she’s 16 she’ll be legally allowed to cut for a big lodge and she’ll make bank.

You are in the middle of almost no where Wabi. When you say you know good kids, I believe you. You can't get into much trouble doing chores when you are miles from the nearest town and limited internet access.

Yeah, there isn't any kids doing bad things in Sac County Iowa...

Been pretty rampant drugs thereabouts since the 1970s and if its slowed down I would be surprised, internet access or not.

Check out McGee Brothers Masonry Contractor. They’ve been running over these laws for years. They develop many young men with exceptional work ethics.

My 25 year old son, his wife and two children (21 and 5 months) live off of a single income. Very frugal but they live pretty well.
