Hit the pavement with your teen to help them get a feel for job searching. Be prepared to go back home and help the teen fill out an online application if the teen is trying to work at a chain store or chain restaurant. Once the job search starts, or job offers come in, be prepared to discuss work hours and who will get the car and when. Familiarize yourself and your teen with the minimum wage law in your state, as well as the child labor laws.

From the moment she was born, your baby was the cutest ever, so you may think you want to capitalize on the cuteness by getting her into modeling. It’s not as easy as it might seem. Not only does your baby have to have the right look, she also has to have the right personality. If you are convinced that she’s ready for the photo shoot, try breaking into the business.

If you’ve ever looked at a toy catalog, parenting magazine or TV commercial and thought, “My baby is so much cuter than these babies!” then you might consider perusing a modeling career for your child. Advertisers need babies of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds. Just like the adult modeling industry, baby modeling can be very competitive and difficult to break in to. Persistence and knowledge will get you so far. The rest is up to fate.
