PSA: Don't do drugs!
 

Who needs drugs when you can have tractors???

Where's the drug that keeps you from buying tractors? LOL
My wife would be slippin that in my drink

It's called "Being 14 and having no money" heh... :bigeyes:

Get a job.... 14yr Olds can work as far as I know. :bigthink:

Mow yards, do odd jobs, work on the farm. I had money when I was 14. Actually I probably had more money when I was 14 than I do now, lol. But I worked for it.

Amen to that!
When I was 13 A neighbor of ours became paralyzed waist down and loss some use in hands and arms. He asked me if I could use his tractor and cut his grass. Told him sure.. No problem. When I was done he handed me 5 bucks and told me if cut the lawn the rest of the summer I could have the tractor and the following year he would get a service to cut. I agreed and took the tractor home. I picked up 4 or 5 more lawns and did pretty well with it. The guy that gave me the tractor insisted I still take 5 bucks every time I cut to pay for the gas.. I tried to not take it but he always made me.

Here in PA you have to be 16 and get working papers from school, at least that's how it was when I was younger. Obviously he could still work for cash if he can find someone willing to do it, hard to find work like that these days due to liability and everybody wanting to sue.

"Working papers" from the school??? And here I thought as a parent it was MY decision whether or not my kid could work!! :bash2:

Surely you don't need the schools "permission" to get a summer job....:bigthink:

What a screwed up world the liberal lunatics have created!! :beatdeadhorse:

Not sure about summer but I know you have to have them during the school year. It's just like playing sports, if your grades aren't good then you can't play, same thing with having a job.

Our school only requires this if the kid wants out of school early. Like he’s got last period study hall, and could be at the job sooner.

Lots of state laws nowadays. I was running farm tractors for my uncle at the ripe old age of 11. I think the only 11 year olds I could employ would have to be my own. At certain ages they can do certain tasks. Working with livestock and running powered equipment, climbing ladders, I think you have to be 16. There may even be restrictions here on your own kids, but I'm not certain. Don't know how many hours a day they can work either, we did about 11-12 with a 1/2 hr for lunch. And I was glad to get that $3 an hr.
