My EX kind of had that opinion of high schoolers working in the summer. She said “they should be enjoying their summers..there will be plenty of time for jobs later”. It’s our job as parents to prepare them for that world. Summer jobs are a good start.
Only the idle rich can really afford to let their kids goof off. If the kids want to attend college, they should be prepared to help pay for it. Not many of us can afford to “foot the bill” entirely on our own.
