Add Missouri to the list of states that wants to do away with those silly laws intended to protect the rights of children in the workplace. Because Kids These Days need a good swift kick in the workplace. Currently Missouri requires schools to sign off on work permits for 14 and 15 year olds to make sure that everything is in line with laws restricting what work children are allowed to do, and when (employers are required to describe the job in detail on the form). But legislators are considering a bill to do away with that and fix it
In Wisconsin, the legislature proposed doing away with work permits completely, not even requiring parent permission for 14 and 15 year olds to work. So parents are supposed to be informed of every single book their darling checks out of the school library but don't need to give permission for them to work 30 hours a week. Fortunately, the bill got vetoed.
