In the South Riding community, many teenagers have jobs. For teenagers, having a job can have many benefits such as money and time management skills, and having a source of income for different opportunities in the area.  A job can also help teenagers transition from being less reliant on their parents. 

“I like having a job because it makes me feel independent and good about myself when I can buy things with my own money I worked for,” sophomore Jenna Freilich said.
