Answer 1 :
Go to an animal adoption center and ask if you could work there..Good Luck!
Answer 2 :
You can not legally work at 13. You could get some babysitting jobs, but not a job in a business. Spend your free time reading and learning. That is the best education you can get.
Answer 3 :
When I lived in Mt. Juliet I had a friend with this problem. The summers especially stunk. However, they are right you cannot legally work in TN at 13. Actually most states won't let you work even part time until 15. It will help you if you volunteer. At a soup kitchen or animal shelter, or the salvation army. Talk to your parents. Let them help you find a fit thats right for you. Besides giving you needed experience, volunteering will also show future employers that you are hard working. When you get a volunteer job, take care of it. Work like you were being paid. Future employers can call these places for references. Start your work history strong and your first job could be a great one. Also, you can get some great business contacts from volunteering and may not have to begin in fast food as most of us do. :) Good Luck!
Answer 4 :
When I was home schooled, I did a lot of babysitting for other home schooling families. I also did volunteer work. Thrift stores for charity will sometimes let you sort clothes, and food pantries will often let you hand out food. Volunteer work is way easier to get if you have an older person who is willing to go with you. If you have relatives nearby, you could ask them if they have any paid work. You could also put out fliers for dog walking, pet sitting and lawn mowing in your neighborhood, at your church, or among the home school families that you know.
