    Oh that’s kinda crazy. The minimum age here is like 14, albeit with a huge amount of restrictions. I think it got my first job at 15

    But I was working in my parents restaurant since i was like 6 or 7. Its “technically” not allowed but people mostly turn a blind eye to parents using their kids as labor, unless its otherwise abusive/neglectful

      Damn, at 15 you’re still at school here and going to school is compulsory by law. (It is also financially supported by the state, i.e. pupils and parents don’t have to pay for school attendance themselves. Well, through taxes)
