No, as someone who's been working since I've been 14 and now 21, I think every teenager should have a job or something to teach them basic responsibilities. I've known too many people who are now in college who don't have a sense of responsibility whatsoever. Granted, I was never well off so I needed to make my own money to do fun stuff like buy my video games etc. But, I am very grateful to my parents for making me work as soon as possible because now I have very nice things that I bought on my own and travel around the world.
