The premise that child labor law harms adolescents and teens is well founded.

I worked consistently from the seventh grade until I graduated from high school at age 17, when I was young. Under current law, I would not have been allowed to hold a single one of those jobs, and would have been broke, and taught to hate the rich instead of do what they did to get rich.

Work.

Agreed.

Nobody is asking kids to work in sweatshops 22 hours a day in deplorable conditions! We’re saying “wipe off your desk and run a mop through the hall.”
