Question: Can a 13 year old work in a fast food restaurants, or is it only 14 year olds?
Answer: Federal law sets 14 as the youngest age you would be able to work in a fast food restaurant, or most other jobs. Different companies may have different policies on how young they will hire people.

i think kids that are 13 years old should be able to get a job because they should be able to help the family pay the bills and so they can be able to get somethings that they really want to get.

They are barely becoming teenagers,and if they are a little bit older,they are barely in 8th grade.Even 14 is way to young.Between the years of 15 and 16 is the best time to get a job.
