Dear Lucy,

I don’t think you should insist on your decision. If I were you, I would talk to my parents and explain to them why you need some extra cash. Perhaps they will find another way to help you. On the one hand, your parents might be right. If you concentrate on school and complete as much of your education as possible, you will get more opportunities in the future. Real opportunities and independence don’t come from earning $150 a week but from the qualifications and experience gained by studying. On the other hand, a part-time job can help you develop the skills you need to become a successful person in the future, like responsibility, discipline, punctuality, and time-management. At your age, this decision can only be made together with your parents.

7. a.

Dear Agony Aunt,

I am 14 years old and I want to get a part-time job because I am always short of cash. I have been looking for some options for two months and I have already found a job I could do in the evenings.

But my parents do not agree with this idea as they think it is too early for me and that I should be spending all my time studying and trying to get into university. I think I am old enough to make my own decisions now and I can start to earn money to buy things. Do you think I should listen to my parents?

Lucy

Перевод:

7. a.

Дорогая Тётушка Агония,

Мне 14 лет, и я хочу найти работу на неполный день, потому что мне всегда не хватает наличных. Я искала варианты в течение двух месяцев и уже нашла работу, которой могла бы заниматься по вечерам.

Но мои родители не согласны с этой идеей, так как они считают, что для меня это слишком рано и что я должна тратить всё своё время на учёбу и попытки поступить в университет. Я думаю, что я уже достаточно взрослая, чтобы принимать собственные решения, и могу начать зарабатывать деньги, чтобы покупать вещи. Как вы думаете, должна ли я слушать своих родителей?
