Is my pay good for my age?

I work as an assistant dance teacher. I'm 14 so I don't really need the money but I want to know if I'm making a good amount for my age.

I made $5/hour the first year. This my second year. I make $7/hour now. I only work about 1 and a half hours a week. So I make about $10.50 a week and about $42 a month.

My job requires: demonstrating dance steps, memorizing choreography, making the kids behave, fixing hair, tying shoes, taking kids to the bathroom, and cleaning up after them when they have "accidents".

Do you think I'm getting paid enough? (I'm just wondering what you guys think. And remember im only 14 so I don't need the money.)

    No. When I was 14 I mowed lawns with my own business. Handed out fliers in my neighborhood. I made 35 an hour and work about 7 hours a week.
