26.Part-time Jobs

Nowadays,many students,including some high school students,would like to have some kind of part-time jobs.In their opinion,a part-time job can offer them a good chance to experience the real world outside schools.Additionally,they can get some money from doing this and therefore become somewhat¹ more indepent from their parents.

However,parents are worried that part-time jobs will influence the studies of students.They think students will not have enough time to learn and rest,and what’s more,they fear that early contacts with society,may lead to juvenile² delinquency.
