What is your opinion? Does working and going to school, hurt your performance in school? Do you know teens that get a job and think it is cool and drop out? I knew teenage girls that dropped out of school and went to work as exotic dancers and said they did not need any more education, What do you think about that situation?

I'm homeschooled, myself, but I think that having a job after school would affect grades in at least 7 out of 10 cases. School is like a job in itself, and teens have to grow, and that's a job too...so it's basically like working 3 jobs.

And what do I think about that situation? I think becoming an exotic dancer is going to educate a teenager about as much as public school.
