Well you/your parents-guardians are the ones responsible for applying for a work permit, it's issued by the school district. And your employer is responsible for telling the school district you've been hired.

Could also be feasible that they properly sent the notification to the school district and you didn't do your part and the school district didn't do theirs as well, although that's a question for a lawyer if it went there.

No, it's not illegal to *hire* a minor without working papers.

"...a minor can apply for and accept a job offer prior to obtaining a work permit. Once the work permit is issued, the minor may begin work. In all cases, when a minor is hired by an employer, it is the employer's responsibility to notify the issuing officer within five (5) days of such employment."

When were we talking about any medical treatment whatsoever here? You're the one obsessed over medical treatments, it's not an issue on this story. Read the article before commenting next time. Maybe you and the teacher should both comprehend what other people - including children - want before shooting off your mouth saying something stupid.

I don't understand how someone willingly becomes a teacher if they don't do anything within their ability to encourage their students.. If they want to be called an avocado, call them an avocado. Picking the correct pronoun is such a low hurdle for making them feel accepted, and last I checked it's no longer 1951.

This teacher sounds more like he'd rather indoctrinate students than nurture them. If you're in the profession only for yourself, you picked the wrong career.

Not sure why me answering an incorrect statement shows I'm not completely in support of the kid doing his hustle. I think it's a great idea, but you be you and complain after reading what you want into my comment.

Thanks. You're allowed to even wear campaign clothing in Pennsylvania. This isn't specific to any campaign and doesn't *ask* anyone to vote, so it's legal. Appreciate the concern for sure! (And I know the county Democratic Party lawyer on duty for Election Day problems, already let her know about my clothing option - she said she's probably going to get one too!)

Nah, the paperwork isn't that rough in PA. You can have a lawyer do it, and they'll scare the shit out of anyone saying you definitely need to hire them, but it's not all that difficult.
