Would you want to know about it?
Scenario is this: my friend asked at the beginning of the summer if I had any admin her 17 year old could do for me to earn some pocket money. I set them up with about a days worth of work and gave her half of the money up front (£25). This was over 6 weeks ago. I originally suggested a month to do it in- and guess what? despite repeated reminders by email and text I've heard nothing from her. I've written off the money and won't be so trusting next time when hiring someone. I wondered though if I should involve the teen's parent so that they can choose to discipline their child - if it was me I'd want to know if my teen was behaving like this but I don't want to interfere if it is not my place to do so. What do you think?
