lower the legal paid working age to 14
Currently, the legal paid working age is 16, however i believe the required age should be lowered to 14 because many teenagers rely on their parents/careers who work and in result of that this, teenagers tend to not become every independent.
As well as that, i think this opportunity would encourage teenagers to provide for them self as they are always wanting the next thing that is trending due to social influences.Finally anther thing that i believe is one of the most crucial benefits, is that teenagers would be encouraged to work instead of joining in with bad behaviour and joining gangs.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
It is already legal for 14 year olds to work within certain limits. We are therefore not sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition if you would like these rules to be changed.
