In this episode, we’re talking about something every parent thinks about sooner or later: how kids and teens can earn money safely. If you’ve ever wondered what jobs are age-appropriate, how to balance independence with safety, or how earning money can build confidence—not pressure—this conversation is for you.

We break down realistic starter jobs for kids ages 11–17, from neighborhood work like babysitting and pet care to at-home and creative options. You’ll also hear practical safety guidelines, red flags to avoid (especially online), and simple ways parents can support their kids without hovering.

More than just jobs, this episode is about teaching responsibility, self-worth, and smart money habits early—in a way that feels empowering for kids and reassuring for parents.
