I think that's okay if the boy has no complaint working as a gasoline boy. Students working part-time are acceptable as long as they can management their time well and won't affect their studies.

If they are in legal age, there is nothing wrong to work like this. In fact, my uncle used to be a gasoline boy before.
My nephew also worked as a gasoline boy when he was 2nd year high school. Now, he's already a Civil Engineer. He's so thankful of his young life's experience and never regret.

I noticed there are high school students working as gasoline boy. I interviewed one and he said, he wants to help his parents. I wanted to oppose him because he is just 17 years old and he is burdened with responsibility. His duty is supposed to study hard, finished a course, and find a better job, but this young boy is the opposite. He works as a gasoline boy. It is so unfair to this young boy, but he is happy with what he is doing. What can you say?
I think there are many students who are working for their families even younger than 17.

This depends on their parents because if the parents are able to afford for the education then its not good and if they are not then its good to see kids doing everything to earn and to get educated

I don't think there is anything wrong with this, some of them are doing these jobs to be able to take care of themselves or their family. Unless there is a law that says otherwise.

It is so unfair indeed for young people to feel burdened to work when they could still be depending on their parents. It might be great that they are learning to hustle early but I wish it was not a must for their livelihood..

I think it depends on the condition that the boy is in. There are some of these kids that fend for themselves
Yes, that is true it depends also on the financial situation of the family. those rich never have kids work as a gasoline boy. Most kid' doing this are struggling finically for their education.

Working as a, gasoline boy for a high school kid is not against the law as long as there is abuses done to them.
