Children today have lost there since of morals and understanding. We get those things at home. Many children don't understand it's not about them it's about the goal. We want money and we much earn it But you cant earn it if you don't know the person and their expectations in work. I work for a elderly woman and i intecipate her moves so I'm never idol. this is what children need to understand how to do before they get a job.
Example
If you made a mess in the kitchen and it 6:30 pm and you know I'm going to cook at 7 pm then you know you need to clean up after your self.
I see kids bad mouthing there parents and it's just un excepable. Teach children to RESPECT others and they will do a good job working and learn to love it.
