At a time when kids are encouraged to attend “Resistance Camps” over Space Camp, it’s hardly surprising that kids are being discouraged from having summer jobs. Times are changing. Not only are kids not given the freedom to explore and play outdoors, they’re also banned from mowing the grass. The difference between the grass, however, is that city ordinances and officials are enforcing the restrictions.
One city in Alabama has allowed more than just historical monuments to fall to the waysides. One would think city officials would have more pressing crimes to worry about than teenagers being hard workers. But, then again who would have thought that tearing down monuments in the dead of night would be implemented to stop people from becoming white supremacists. Those darn monuments. And those darn kids wanting to have summer jobs instead of protesting or lazing around.

Liberalism at its best
Thats wrong. In this counrty its free to mow grass at home or if mowing next door for a price. What are we doing
Ridiculous!!!
Just another way to suck the average citizen dry!! Kick the loons out of office!
Politicians and business trying to strong arm kids.
If these kids need a license to go out and mow lawns then it should be free for them, all they have to do is show their student ID to get the free license. Problem solved.
F**e
Fine there asses they should know the law
Sweet home???
I have already covered this. The person (child) is not a tax payer, so she is not subject to the same ordinances/business regulations as tax payers (individuals who make over $6,000 yearly) are subjected to. If the girl ends up making more than $6,000 per year mowing lawns then she will need to apply for a permit/business license. She is making a maximum of $4,800 per year and is not subjected to the same laws/ordinances that people who make over $6,000 are year are, it is that simple. The mayor is a moron. :/
