If your 16 yr old has a part time job how much do they earn?

[IndigoApple]

DD (16) has just got her first part time job, in retail. All good so far. It's minimum wage so £4/h. She's working for a chain but not a big one. She has friends working for Boots/Debenhams etc. who say they are getting at least £6 or £7/h. Do most employers pay 16 year olds more than £4/h?

Dd got minimum wage. Nearly all her friends were earning more. She got another job earning twice as much, but it wasn't as convenient as the first job, so money isn't everything.
