I think it's because the parent would expect a job offer instead of an internship.

That seems like an unreasonable expectation, considering he's still in full-time education - so he wouldn't be likely to accept a job offer in any case.

It sounds like he only found XSS, which isn't exactly worthy of a job offer anyway.

> isn't exactly worthy of a job offer anyway.

1) XSS is game over for sites with authentication. What kind of vulnerabilities do you think are more important than XSS?

2) XSS is a result. There are a lot of complicated XSS bugs.

Yup planning on going to college so not interested in any full time job offers (though I have received them...).

I would've loved an internship as a new high school grad... most people don't get a tech internship till 2 or 3 years into college.
