Well… if you are 13 or older you can detassle corn depending on where you live. It is over now but you can do it every summer until your 16 when you can get a better job. What you do is go through corn fields and take the tassels of the tops of the corn. It is hard work but the pay is worth it. You can earn up to 35 dollars a day. That is pretty good. If you do it for more then one year you can become a crew leader. That just means that you just walk through the corn after your team and make sure they did alright and got most of the tassels. You get paid 10 dollars an hour for that. Usually if weather is good you go for about 8 hours a day. That is 80 dollars a DAY. It is hard work but it is definitely worth the pay.

OW! Well, how about taking out the trash? Mopping the floors? Doing laundry? Mowing the lawn? Edging the lawn? Pulling weeds? Washing the auto? Cleaning gutters? Power washing the porch, deck, sidewalks? Re-cycling the cans? Doing things for neighbors? Get a job! At our house, the kids take turns doing the kitchen (dishes, drying, washing, putting up) sweeping and mopping the kitchen, dining room and butlers pantry, vacuuming and mopping the hallways, cleaning the bathroom and doing the towels, cleaning their OWN ROOMS, cleaning the autos, mowing and edging the lawn, and taking things for re-cycling. They get NOTHING extra for that, that is the cost of being a family and living here. EXTRA CHORES get paid for like helping clean the basement, cleaning the porch, deck, or sidewalks, planting trees, bushes, or flowers, painting a room (not their own!) ETC. They get an allowance of a $1 a day, anything else they EARN! Is it fair? Well, we have respectful kids who don’t think I will hand them EVERYTHING for NO EFFORT! And they don’t EXPECT a lot from me for nothing! So get busy! There are plenty of things, up to and including getting a job that pays, like a bag person at a local grocery store, a check out clerk, making pizzas, flipping burgers, frying fries! Come on! GET BUSY! Hope this helps you! Good luck!
