I'm probably opening myself up to the "righteous wrath" of some shriveled social worker, but, granting the heartbreaking circumstance of the boy's homelessness, it's better that he make a fistful of cash in 20 minutes doing something he's good at and seems to enjoy than being exploited for hours on end performing some cheap hard labor or humiliating himself by climbing into a Burger King uniform and having to smile all day at assholes who treat him as if he's invisible.
