Is it a good idea for teenagers to work while studying at school?

There has been a lot of debate about the topic of whether teenagers need to work while they're studying. So, is it really good for teenagers to work during the school year? I would like to present the advantages and disadvantages of the issue.


There are several positive reasons for teens to work. First of all, teenagers want to be independent. They have a lot of expenses such as: clothes, school supplies, parties, food, shopping and a lot of things that normal teens spend money on. They don’t feel good running to their parents every time they need money, because they feel uncomfortable asking for money. Another advantage is that sometimes the teen's family is not in a good economic situation and this might make the child want to help.


In spite of these advantages, there is one very important disadvantage. When a teen works during the school year, it takes time away, time that he could be studying. This may effect his atittude toward studies and grades.


To summarize, I think that teenagers can work if they want to, but with a limited number of hours each week. This way they can combine independence with good study habits.
I loved your compo !! You use advanced structures (conditionals) good vocabulary and good organization! Pls tell me if you have worked alone. If you have been helped pls tell me how.
