Parental Attitudes toward Youth Work.

Phillips, Sarah; Sandstrom, Kent L.

Youth and Society, v22 n2 p160-83 Dec 1990

Examines the attitudes of a sample of parents of ninth grade students in a large midwestern city. Finds that parents strongly approve of youth work in general, and their children's jobs in particular. More "advantaged" parents would prefer that their children obtain paid jobs at an earlier age.
