Proud dad sparks fierce debate online after sharing photos of his 14-year-old working at Burger King


A person’s first employment is a significant life milestone that they will always remember. Whether it’s babysitting or mowing the lawn, it opens a crucial chapter in your life as you learn to take responsibility.

Pictures of a father’s proud son working at his first job were uploaded. In a piece devoted to his kid, Chris Crawford discussed how even some adults may benefit from the young teen’s strong sense of morality.

He announced in the post that his son had been hired as a Burger King part-time employee.

He continues by praising his son’s remarkable work ethic, noting that the adolescent works every day of the week, including weekends. His father expressed his pride in his son, saying that while other kids his age were “enjoying their summer,” his son was earning an honest wage.

HUGE shout out to this kid of mine, 14 years old and has a PT job at Burger King, not only does he work every day he can…Posted by Chris Crawford on Monday, June 7, 2021

He discussed how his son decides to leave for work early and stay late as well. He said that he was incredibly proud of his son and what he has accomplished at such a young age.

Crawford said that his son relished every second of his work. The teen enjoys earning his own income and having the ability to put money aside for a car, according to his father.

Since the post, perspectives on the subject have varied among internet users. While some think that a young man should start learning the importance of money and saving at an earlier age.

Others believe that a youngster should not be too focused on their work at such a young age. They should treat the child like a child and not worry about his schoolwork! According to some online users, these are their formative years, thus kids should enjoy being children.

In the US, 14 years old is the minimum age to work in non-agricultural jobs. The government also limits the number of hours that kids under the age of 16 are permitted to work. The rule also forbids hiring minors under the age of 18 for dangerous jobs.

Since the boy’s father claimed to work seven days a week, people were worried about him. Crawford’s essay, however, claims that his son’s happiness is primarily due to his job. His son can be seen smiling in the pictures he has posted of him in his Burger King uniform.

No matter how old you grow, the influence of your first job is something you always remember!
