As soon as I turned 16, I wanted to get a part-time job. My mother let me, as long as my grades and other after-school activities didn't suffer.
My first job was at a movie theater working at the concession stand (oh, how I ended up hating it! LoL). It was a real eye-opener and made me appreciate the value of a dollar.

It is amazing how differently they spend the money they earned vs. how they spend the money you earn! I am all for a part-time job, student checking account & paying for life's little extras on your own. I am continually astonished at how frugal my children are with their own money - LOL
