My daughter...? ?

Question

she says she wants somthing like a summer job but she is not old enough the reason she wants a summer job is because she needs money for this 700 dollar thing pretty quick but then she doesn't really need it quick so either way is good..

but she already has an allowence and she says she will do extra chores but she till needs a plan...

.

Answer 1

Babysitting, mowing lawns, making something and selling it.Help her, its a good oportunity to help show her how to work for what she wants, it is never too early for that lesson.

Answer 2

I don't see a question here

Answer 3

Pick a public place and wash cars. She probably won't make $700 but that is a good start. Have her get a water hose and post Car Wash signs. this way she doesn't have to beg for a job. People will come to her.

Answer 4

she can work other jobs, like babysitter, or maybe cleaning family and friends members have a garage sell, just some simple things to earn some money.

Answer 5

If she isn't old enough to get a job, she should go around the neighborhood and see if there are any elderly people who may need help done around their place. Like you said; she is looking for extra chores. She can pick some extra chores by raking their leaves, taking out their trash, watering their lawn or garden, etc.

Most older people are glad to help hard working young people out.

Answer 6

I would say if you're the parent you should decide if the thing she needs is really that necessary. If she's not old enough to have a job you have the right to say no to whatever it is she wants. Don't let your kids tell you what to do because the older they get the more they think they'll be able to walk all over you.

If she ends up finding a job there aren't many that won't start young kids out at minimum wage, so she's not going to be able to get it quick. You could always get it for her and then keep a record of what she owes you so when she is old enough to get a job she has to pay you back for what you've gotten her that was quite expensive.

Answer 7

say waaaaaaaaaaaaat?!

Answer 8

tell her to try going to the niebers for baby sitting or cleaning there house or something any way how old is ur  daughter?

Answer 9

She could baby sit or watch kids after school. That's what I did.

Answer 10

Looks like your daughter wrote this. Anyway where's the question?

Answer 11

How about doing chores for neighbors?  Mowing lawns and other yardwork, cleaning, dog walking..

Post some flyers at your local supermarket, or speak to your friends and neighbors.

Good for her that she wants to earn it!

:o)

Answer 12

so wats ur question

Answer 13

Actually, Teen $imon, most of your suggestions are good, but it would be a violation of federal child labor laws for a restaurant or fast food place to hire anyone under 14 in any capacity, including dishwasher.

For a 10-year-old, walking dogs, doing errands and chores for neighbors are the best bets. A few states have laws against anyone under 12 or 14 babysitting. And realistically, will a 10-year-old know what to do if the baby is choking??

Young people should be careful about selling anything door-to-door. Unfortunately, some youngsters doing this have been the targets of abuse or criminal attacks.

Answer 14

babysitting... dog walking's a good one... things like that.. you can post paper ads n stuff on billboards at grocery stores n stuff... especially the dog walking people like those people who are cheaper than dog walkers that do it for a living

Answer 15

all born human are here for wealth u can start asking now

Answer 16

Okay, first what is the question? Second, I'm assuming she's under 14 if you're asking this, so what could a child that young really need that costs $700? If you want a good answer you really need to include details.

Answer 17

Here are some things she ask them neighbors if they need help with:  baby sitting, lawn mowing, house cleaning, yard work, dog walking, watering the plants while they're on vacation.

Answer 18

chick-fil-a hires@14

Answer 19

baby sit, dog sit, offer to walk dogs, garage sale, mow lawns, sell lemonade, clean houses,clean garages,pull weeds,ebay, a dishwasher at a restaurant(some do hire), paper route,wash inside and clean outside of cars, some fast food places hire, make crafts and sell them house to house.

There are many opportunities, just find something you like to do and go from there. Im 14 and I started trying to make money a few months ago. I like to excercise, so I decided to mow lawns for neighbors(its not neccessarily something that I liKe to do though) But I do like to sell things, and I often do garage sales. Just find something you like and work hard at it, if you work hard you will do well. I now have around 1,800 dollars. Just put yourself out there, I also recently offered to babysit a kid next door, and dogsit for 2 neighbors if they ever need me too. Good Luck!!

Answer 20

She should make adds for babysitting that's a good way to earn money!

Answer 21

Depending on her age, you might want to consider giving her the job.  I got a job when I was high school and it taught me some discipline.  I hardly spent any of the money I earned.
