I don’t agree that wages for youth workers are too low. I think so because teenagers don’t need plenty of money because they usually live with their parents and it learns them that it takes a lot of work to earn a little. The youth of today can already be happy that they get money for what they are doing because earlier this century children always used to help older people or their own parents with their jobs. Teenagers don’t get paid as much as adults do because they simply don’t need the money. Adults work to be able to live a life and not to buy CD’s, books, piercings and other things young people would buy.
Teenagers usually live with their parents and their parents give them food, a bed and more so youth has to think more about their parents before they start complaining about their low wages. It is a good thing that youth wages are lower than adult wages because like that teenagers learn how hard it is to earn some money and how to spend it in a good way. Kids often think way too easy about their parents money and they have to learn how hard it can be to earn money. The best job to realise how hard it is to earn money has got to be paper running because you spend a few hours folding the papers and after you have to deliver them for a few hours and all of that only for around four dollars. Young people should be happy to have a job because in some countries people need jobs real badly and the wages are even lower than our youth wages.
The Term Paper on Minimum Wage
Minimum wage is the lowest rate employees may legally pay for an hour of labor (Merriam, 741). The United States has a minimum wage law to guarantee minimum hourly wages and to prevent the exploitation of workers and provide unskilled and part-time workers with a wage floor. People have argues that the minimum wage has become less of a safety net for primary earners in poor families than a floor ...
So the teenagers should think about other people’s situations first before they start complaining about something which is really not important. So, youth wages are actually not too low at all because youth doesn’t need the money, it is good for them to learn how to earn and spend money. And teenagers should also be happy with their job because this is not the case in every single country of the world.
