What jobs hire 14 year olds?
I'm turning 15 in 6 months, but before then I want a job. My mom is supportive of my decision for getting a job, I've talked to my school about it and I think I'm suitable for it.

What are things to start working towards being in 9th grade?
I am currently in 9th grade and am wondering what types of programs or things that I can do currently. To build up my portfolio for college. To be more specific I want to go to school for early childhood education or to become a social worker. Some schools that I have heard to be good for those fields are UC Berkeley, UC Irvine, La Verne, etc. These are some of the schools that I am trying to work towards. I am already in a scholarship program that is helping me build it up through their help but we only meet around once a month and I know that I can be doing much more than I am currently.

What education and major would I have to do to work in Child Protective Services?
I have always wanted to work with kids and though some might not see this as a good way to I like the idea that I would be able to help children with my work. I have researched social work and have picked to either become a social worker at a school or hospitality or work for CPS. Though I know some might say it does take an emotional toll on some I also don't want to just teach kids but also help them with other problems such as ones that may occur in this line of work. Overall I really just want to know if either of these two careers are majorly different when it comes to education and other factors such as pay, work load, hours and more.

What jobs are there for a 13-year-old aside from the typical dog-walking and lawnmowing?
I am a 13-year-old and I am looking for a way to make money before I am old enough to get a real job. I am also trying to build life and job skills through whatever activity I may find. If anyone has any ideas, please respond!

How do I study abroad or go to boarding school without funds?
I would like to do my studies away from home for a while. I don't know how to get scholarships or grants. I have always loved to explore since I didn't get to leave the house much when I was younger. I might qualify for financial aid but that still may make it a bit hard. I would like to have primary coverage or full cover. I want to explore architectural design as well as forensic scenes, criminology, criminal profiling, Cooking, and linguistics. I like freedom but that doesn't mean that I won't listen to rules. I have a GPA of 3.5 and going into my sophomore year of high school.
