The number of teenagers working during the school holidays is increasing rapidly nowadays. To me, it is a good sight as this shows that teenagers are learning to become more mature and independent. Why would I think so?
First of all, you will learn to recognise that it's not easy to earn money. You need a lot of hardship in order to get your pay. Sometimes, it will be more difficult than you think. Hence through working, you can appreciate the money your parents give you.
On the other hand, stepping into the workforce during school holidays will allow you to gain a certain degree of experience through interaction with people from different levels of the society. This not only affects the way that you work in the future, but it also helps in interaction in school. It also help you to find new job faster when you step into the society one day, which is obviously very important.
Some people said that working will affect their studies and that they do not have time to complete their homework assigned by their teachers. Personally, I think it is just an excuse. Being teenagers, we should have known how to manage our times wisely. We can take part time job instead of full time, and we can finish our homework before taking up a job. Hence, I do not think this is a problem that will hinder us from working during holiday.
In short, I strongly agree that teenagers should work during the holidays. I think it will be a good experience for all the teenagers. Me, myself are willing to give it a try during December holiday.
