I feel that teenagers should work during the holidays.
There are many advantages and disadvantages. There are advantages such as early working experience that can prepare teenagers for the working society in the future.Most parents are also likely to encourage their children to start working when they are teenagers. The extra money could greatly benefit teenagers who are short on cash at the moment.
However, there are some disadvantages to teenagers working during the holidays too. For example, working could take up the teen's studying or leisure time. Working days could also easily clash with the teen's tuition, school project or cca event days. It would be difficult for the teen to arrange his or her working days with so many other events going on.
However, if a teen does decide to find a job and start working during the holidays, i feel that he should find a job that suits his personality. It would be best for a person to work in an environment that he feels comfortable in, instead of one that would make him tense and frustrated. Working in a suitable environment would enable the teen to perform to his fullest potential.
Having the teen's parents come down and visit his working place can also help. The parents of the teen could then know what kind of environment and people their child is working in. They could also give valuable tips and advices to their child which could greatly contribute to the child's working experience.
As a conclusion, i feel that teenagers should work during the holidays. However, they should also practice caution when finding a job.
