In many countries children are engaged in some kind of paid work. Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learninh and taking responsibilities. What are your opinions on this?
Some people believe having a
job
while
studying is a valuable experience for children. On the contrary
, some other people disagree. Making the right choice between these two can be quite important for adolescents. In this
essay, I will discuss my opinion of both points of view.
On the one hand, being engaged in a job
during high school can come with achieving useful experiences. Students
can prepare their selves for their future jobs by learning useful abilities in different fields, getting familiar with workplaces and practising responsibility. For example
, it is proven that participation at work can reinforce teamwork spirit in students
. Furthermore
, dealing with problems in the workspace has a positive effect on students
' creativity. So having a part-time
job
can be advantageous for teenagers.
On the other hand
, working and studying at the same time
can reduce adolescents' efficiency. Jobs can fill the time
that students
need for practising. Moreover
, they can make them exhausted both mentally and physically so their capabilities will decrease. Additionally
, they can face psychological issues in severe cases. For instance
, a 4-hour job
in a restaurant, which is a usual job
for teenagers, can take the time
they need to study and rest and even the time
they spend on their hobbies. Therefore
, their educational efficiency will drop and the possibility of dealing with depression will increase; due to
the fact that they don't spend time
on joyful activities. So there are serious disadvantages to this
theory.
To conclude
, although
a job
can be functional for juveniles, it can harm their studies and mental health. In my point of view, a job
can be functional for students
unless it damages students
