I’m going to be fourteen soon and I want a job

Question

So I love painting and saving up for the one thing I want and I also just want to have a job ? the thing is my parents don’t want me to ? How should I convince them???

You have your entire adult life to work. School is your job! If you want to make some spending money maybe you can negotiate with your parent(s) to allow you to 
1. Baby-sit or pet-sit 
2. Earn money for chores 
3. Do yard work
4. Monetize a craft you enjoy doing (e.g. selling your art work, make something crafty, etc.)

Do you know why they don’t want you to work? Are they afraid it will interfere with your schoolwork? Or is it that because you can’t drive yet they will have to take you to and from work? Maybe you could show responsibility by having your homework done in a timely manner and all your household chores completed.
