Teens and summer work

This post is from Becky Kramer, a business reporter at The Spokesman-Review. I’m writing a story about declining teen participation in the workforce. I’d like to connect with some parents of teens to talk about the pros and cons of summer jobs. I’m hearing that fewer local teens are working, due to summer sports, AP assignments and family vacations. If you and your teen are willing to be interviewed, please contact me at (800) 344-6718, ext. 7122 or beckyk@spokesman.com
