Truly fascinating.

FYI, states are all over the place on this issue. Some states have no work permit requirements, some only require them for kids up to age 16, and some require them for certain types of jobs up to and including age 18. None of these state regulations replaced or detracted from the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, which already provides strict child labor prohibitions and requirements.
Anything people feel strongly about attracts a troll from you? Forget it, will not engage with you. Go away.

No, it was a legit observation and a legit set of facts.

Set of facts -

- states are all over the place with requiring minors to get a work permit.
- state laws can only be more strict than Federal child labor laws, which are already pretty strict.

Sorry if that bothers you.
