no it hasnt. and if those jobs are so plentiful and lucrative then adults with responsibilities should be the priority for them, not teens
theres nothing wrong with teens working low paying retail and fast food jobs, because someone has to do them and all things considered they're the best demographic for them. frankly it would be ideal if those were mostly relegated to teens without families and responsibilties, and adults were taking those jobs you're talking about
and if you want an example of your first point, For years, immigration authorities gave this Arizona mother a pass. Now she has been deported.
how am i "supposed" to feel about this story?
Based on all relevant data black teens should use the summer to increase their educational proficiency.
It's not at all. No one is talking about YOU in particular. But being unable to get a summer job is less important than the educational struggles of AAs.But what if you're not middle class and have to work?
I did..was a pretty smart kid too, but not from a well off or even middle class family.
Comment is kind of obtuse on your part...

This person has obviously never had a summer job lol ...wow.

That comment is kind of selfish on your part.![]()

My mom told me when I was in high school: "The only way we're keeping the internet is if you're paying the bill."
Needless to say, I was working at Six Flags shortly after.![]()
If you have your high school summer job on your resume you've already lost.Ummmm...you're really obtuse.
Beyond education in school work actually teaches you a lot so, working is part of education and a great way to build a resume and start to learn how to deal with you own money.
And some kids actually HAVE to work...summer jobs are necessary for them.
How are you this obtuse?
Even Obama knew this and one of his first programs was a summer work program for kids. He recently donated money to fund a summer job program for teens...All education doesn't happen at school.
Obamas pledge $2 million for summer jobs, apprenticeships for Chicago youth
I'm not being selfish it's just you're just kind of out of touch with reality.![]()

you talking about me?This person has obviously never had a summer job lol ...wow.
i had a summer job since i was 13No I'm talking about whoever said teens are being pushed into low wage work and not lucrative summer jobs.you talking about me?i had a summer job since i was 13
EXACTLYso why should i support adding illegal immigration to the labor pool on top of all of thisisnt it just one more detriment?
of course a teenager is gonna do UBER and E COMMERCEI'm not sure if it's a matter of "supporting" immigrants taking menial summer jobs--I don't think anyone's "pushing" for it necessarily--it's just a fact of the workforce. :kanyebp:
The question is why society wants to push teens into low paying retail and food service jobs, when the economy has evolved to afford them much more lucrative opportunities (drop shipping, e-commerce, ride sharing programs like Uber, etc.)

Based on all relevant data black teens should use the summer to increase their educational proficiency.

EXACTLY
of course a teenager is gonna do UBER and E COMMERCE
