I'm 15 (will be 16 at the end of July) and i have a baby. I was wondering if i could work fulltime instead of part-time? because i'm really getting a job to support my daughter and not myself.

it is highly likely that you will not be able to work full time until age 18 (child labor laws). if your part-time work isn't enough...maybe you could also baby sit or house sit for people. you can contact the labor board in your state to find out more information.

i don't think so. The law says that minors cannot work full time but ask your career counselor at school. Having a baby put you in a backwards positiion and delayed alot of things but it's too late now. Get help taking care of your baby. Take turns, you and your bf and parents and then you can at least finish high school or get a GED. After that, you'd be able to get a better job to start your future right.

nope you can only work i think its 25-30 hours per week and only til ten pm because of school, kids under 18 have to have a work permit from their high school giving the ok for them to work. you have to maintain really good grades and attendance at school too sorry sweetie get the fathers butt for child support

what about going to school? you will make a better living for your daughter and yourself in the long run if you stay in school and graduate from hs and then maybe go to college.
