Question

3 Read the texts and put a tick (✓) into the correct column.
Amy, Manchester: «I had my first job at the age of 12 delivering the weekly
free paper. By the time I was 13 I had been working Sunday evenings washing
up in a café and continued to have part-time jobs in cafés and restaurants
until I left school. My parents gave me very little pocket money so I quickly
learnt that if I wanted money I had to work for it. When my own children
reach 13, they will also be expected to work - if not in a job outside of the
home, then at least doing work around the house or for my husband's busi-
ness to earn any «pocket money». It teaches children an important lesson
about the value of work and money which is just as important for their edu-
cation as academic study>>.
Neil, York: « fantastic to have money that was mine by my own efforts, and I was able to
learn the value of money, and good financial practices early on. I have had
5 jobs since I was 13, I have been able to develop a range of skills and I do
not regret entering work at such an early age. The only problem I really had
was combining work and study, as it was, at times, difficult to balance work
hours with school and college lessons, but work also gave me motivation for
my studies and provided practical experience to apply to what I learnt».
