<p>SOCIAL SECURITY</p>

<p>I am 16 years old and currently working fast food. My dad is a retired military man and I am currently receiving social security benefits as a dependent. I am not disabled. I was wondering if my social security benefits would decrease if I work. If they do decrease - if there a certain maximum earnings for child dependants or is it just all earnings? Anybody in this situation? Any answers will help. Thanks</p>

<p>Why do you get social security when you’re sixteen? I don’t get it. Do you live by yourself or something?</p>
