True. Federal Child Labor Laws make exceptions for children who are part of the household of a small business owner as well as on farms and ranches. People under 18 and under can be employed but only part-time and only during what's called "first shift" and not more than 8 hours at a stretch, which is daytime shift. People 18 and over can work adult shifts that could be over 8 hours in a shift.

Sometimes you get get a job at fourteen but sometimes you have to wait to be 16. IF you want to get a job at a resturaunt then you have to be 18 or some stores in the mall 18 and a place with a bar you have to be 21.
