There is nothing wrong with a seven year old doing a little work. They can set the table, fold their laundry, help rake the yard, and several other things. Just keep in mind that at the age of seven, you are probably going to be spending more time helping them do it right then sitting back enjoying the chores being done. As far as a seven year old actually joining the work force, no. There are international laws set in place to guard young children from being placed in those situations.
