I'm unsure if I am or not. DS hasn't said he won't, however is only taking a cursory glance at job websites each week.

He attends full time college, and does well there. I think he ought to have some kind of work too. He tells me that none of his college friends work (which has been confirmed by a couple when they come here)

I just think he ought to, even a Saturday job would be fine, though weekend or evening would work well too. It's not for any money into the household, I just think it would benefit him in many ways.

At the moment, I'm not pushing the matter, as unsure if IABU Confused

Am I expecting too much? Do your DC work as well as attend full time education?

Depends where you live I think! Looking on the internet doesn't really work. He could trawl up and down your local high street, often there are notices in shop windows in independent places. Local magazines often put in ads, all our local pubs have a FB page and put ads on there. McD's did advertise on their website for p/t vacancies.

Good luck! It sounds like your DS has quite a bit of spare time, he could end up enjoying it, he'll certainly enjoy the money!
