child labor vs. cute

<< < (5/5)

Jace:
I think it becomes exploitative when the kids decide they want to go off and play with the crumbs and some birds outside and the parents tell them they have to get back to work.

Jimmy the Squid:
I went to the newsagents and there was a 2 year old kid sitting behind the counter. He tried to give me five dollars in change when I had paid for my newspaper with exact money. His mother (who was sitting behind the counter as well) took over from that point. He was a sweetie.

valley_parade:
When I was little, my dad owned a convenience store, and sometimes I'd ring up customers. Even at a young age (I was probably 5 or 6), I never messed up change or anything like that.

Trollstormur:
I went into a Barbecue place that opened up at 6am, served ribs until 2pm at which point it closed so the connected tattoo parlour could open up. I was waited upon by a 10 year old kid while an older man made ribs in the back. It was ~12:30 on a school day.

good ribs, though. cheap, too. got a whole plate + a side, corn bread and a drink for $6. The potato salad was pretty rad too.
