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.

I don't think kids should work until they get out of high school. Grades are more inportant than mall money.

Well, if they only work a few hours a week AND are able to stay on top of their grades, more power to them. Problem is, most can't do that.
