People are divided on whether
children
 should earn some form of payment for doing some
work
. Some find
this
 unacceptable, while it's seen by others as an avenue to gain essential
work
 experience for learning and taking responsibilities. In my opinion, there are benefits associated with paid
work
 that make
this
 right,
in addition
 to the valuable
work
 experience. Why I believe that paying
children
 some
money
 for the services they render is a good thing is that it helps them to value
money
.
In other words
, when they have to
work
 for hours to earn an income, they tend to appreciate
money
 and are less wasteful with their spending.
For instance
, a kid might decide to spend 10 dollars he received from his father as a gift on a toy but choose to save the
money
 he earned from babysitting for a neighbour.
Furthermore
, paid
work
 for youngster help them to behave responsibly. Because of the reward in form of
money
,
for example
, they learn to endure hardships and distractions they may be faced with that might affect their productivity. To illustrate, as a child who suffered from Attention deficit disorder, my parents were surprised that I did well as a part-time paid receptionist in a nearby
children
's clinic in comparison to when I was just an unpaid volunteer. In conclusion, I strongly believe
children
's engagement in receiving payment for their services is right because it teaches them how to be financially smart, take more responsibility and focus more than they would ordinarily
