Should kids be allowed to work at the age of 14?

Working at a young age has so many positive things but can also drag along negative things. As a young teeanager I began to work at 14 which I had just gotten out of junior high. I was prepariong for a major change in my life(high school). So working help me become independent and gain so many responsiblities. I was able to buy things that all young children would die for.It helped me learn that you have to work hard for what you want. On the other hand all throughout high school I was working and wanting to work more. I began caring less about school and more about working.
