Default Any 12 or 13 year old teens tired of mowing the lawn and babsitting for money?

Want a real job? Am I the only one that is sick and tired of mowing the lawn or babysitting and not making much money? Putting out atleast 100 babysitting fliers and ony making 10 bucks?
I made a petition stating that the section of the child labor law restricting people younger than 14 to work should be changed. Here's what it says.
I believe that starting at the age of 12 or 13 people should be able to get a job. The rest of the child labor law should remain the same, only changing the age restriction. The reason I believe this is because starting work at a young age will promote maturity, responsibility, leadership, respect, and give preteens and teens more experience in the working field. If this was accomplished it would be more likely that they would get there desired job and follow their desired career path. This will teach them the value of the dollar, not to mention allow them to save for their future
To read the rest of the petition or sign in please follow this link. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Changechildlaborlaw

I'm not advertising exactly, but I want to know your opinion. So please tell me what you think of this.

If you believe in this as well sign it and tell your friends or relitives. If I get enough signatures this can change. A petition does a lot. What do you think?
Oh no trust me. I need to save for my future. I will enjoy work because I'll be working in the nature and animal science career path. So it's something I like. And the money will earn me my dream piece of land and my dream life. And thankyou to the person that agrees with me. Sign the petition and send it to your friends if you agree. It can change. And plus it's not like we'll have to go to work if we don't want to. We'll just have the choice then.
