I think our country should have 18-year-olds serve in compulsory military service. There are many beneficial things from this, you will learn some discipline if you didn't already have some, also you won't have to pay a full college tuition. However, you can't choose where you go, you do what they say, not what you want.
To start off with, you will learn some discipline if you haven't already. Some kids at home weren't raised strictly or taught to be mannerly to people. Some 18-year-olds will think making a rude comment, or not showing any manner towards adults is okay, but it really isn't! I think showing discipline is a skill every kid should know by the age of 18. This program would teach the kids who never got that. Showing respect to people, and acting right is so important, and America is lacking this. This will help this issue out greatly.

Many kids at the age of 18 decide if they are going to go to college or not. Some don't go because they have other plans in mind. 12% of people don't go to college because they don't have the money to pay. Now if are country required all 18-year-olds to do compulsory military service, you would get a huge discount for college. This would result in many more students attending college. I think this would benefit our country greatly by helping kids get a better education after their service was complete.
Finally, you don't get to choose where they put you, and you can't do what you want. Some kids get will get put into to areas they don't want to go. You can't sign up to go somewhere, you can choose to go with friends. They look at you and they send you off to a place based on your abilities. Also, you will have to get up when they tell you. You can't do what you want any more, you will have to do what they say. Even if you disagree, they won't care. You do what they say and if they talk back, or refuse to do this, there will be
Freshman 101 is a class adapted from the parrot program (Fay & Medway, 2006, p. 226). The parrot program was designed for college students at Cornell University. Freshman 101 is the first of its kind in the state of South Carolina and the first to extend Parrot’s college program to high school freshmen (p. 226). Each two-hour intervention class contained 25 to 30 freshmen students. The objectives of the class were to have participants understand the definition of acquaintance rape and the frequency that it takes place along with South Carolina’s laws regarding rape (p. 226). Students also learned about mixed messages associated with verbal and non-verbal communication and how to clearly state their wants and desires (p. 227). Communication,
This document is about if americans should be required to serve a year of service in the military before college. I believe that americans should be required to join the military because my brother has experience and I asked him this and he said the same thing as me because there would be military discounts, open up more jobs, and in the end die an honorable death.
Think also, the possibility of forcing young criminals between the ages of 18 and 25 to join the military. Maybe due to joining the military, these young criminals would be reformed into honorable, self-respecting individuals or become leaders of our great nation. In addition, if military conscription were implemented, the tax payers would not have to pay for the juvenile criminals to be locked up in maximum or minimum security centers.
Refusing to serve the armed forces should not even be allowed because the citizen already took the oath, and they are healthy enough to serve. The first reason as to why it should not be allowed is because they took an oath. Once a citizen pledges into a military service they can not just leave when their help is needed. Once they said that pledge of allegiance to serve, protect, and fight for their country it is required for them to fulfill their duties and do what the armed forces are asking you to do. Leaving without permission and failure to report for duty can lead to charges.
Your senior year was a wild, crazy mess. You started off the year not wanting to go to school to see Karson because you couldn’t handle it. You even left school some days when he would show up. You let your dumb self try again with Karson and it failed. You got hurt, and even cried.... A lot. You meet the love of your life, Kyle, and still talk to him even though you guys aren’t together right now. You both hope to reconnect after you finish your second year of college. Keep talking to him, don’t let him get away from you. You have had it tough this year, but by the end of the year you didn’t let anything affect you. Your grades were A’s and B’s all year. You made some amazing new friends like, Chandler, Clayton Ecker, Collin and more boys
There are many teens' in the world that do not want to serve in the military, so they should each have their own choice. Some teens are very weak, lazy, and will not do the right work for the military. If a person does not want to serve in the military, they will not even try to fight. If there are several people made to be in the
I was very excited to start my junior year of college. I had a great year my second and third year and now was excited to see my friends, play soccer and work hard to improve my grades like always. I am m not very proud that I end my junior semester year with a 2.5 GPA. This was my hardest semester because I change my major from Physical Education to Business Administration.
Required to join the military after high school for two years. Personally, you shouldn't have to be required to join the military after high. Your future is what you make it not what other people make it. If this was your child would you like for someone else to choose their future for them and for them to waist two years doing something they don't enjoy and would have never done if they choose their own future? I will give you many reasons behind why people choose not to join the military now and in the future.
Sophomore year had ended, and my summer had just begun. After a long wait to gain permission to go on a backpacking trip. My father gave me the approval. I took my love for the outdoors and began to explore it even more.
In our great prospering nation, nowadays there's a large amount of immature, spineless, arrogant people who need to be kicked in the freaking bum and grow the hell up. Why do we assume that young people today truly know what discipline, and sacrifice, and moral striving and overcoming challenges means in life? Well, from the findings of Williams, an American political writer, “three-quarters of high school students in America’s inner cities have dropped out of high school” because they sense that “a high school diploma serves them no purpose” (Williams). Making compulsory military service is necessary for demonstrating what it truly means to overcome obstacles, which greatly benefits the future generations of America. When younger people conquer challenges, it gives them a sense of pride and real self-esteem upon their upcoming
In my perspective, I strongly agree with the idea that everyone has to perform at least one year of mandatory public service. I think this because it will really benefit the nation as a whole. It will show the individuals what has to be done to protect the country. Furthermore, if an individual chooses to do military service it will help the U.S military and the nation overall. The benefits to the United States society for young men making themselves available for public service would be that they as individuals would be more disciplined and mature. I think that it will help them grow physically and emotionally because of us as people we have feelings which play a big role in our lives. It would also help them fully develop themselves and they
The teenage period is normally known for being the best chapter of someone s life.. a period full of fun and happy moments. The period where they get to build their own personality and develop their opinions about almost everything.
In conclusion,as you can see mandating teenagers to serve 2 years of mandatory military would be an uneducated and life affecting decision. Serving 2 years of military service can be harsh on a person's mental health, especially for teens who should not have to be a victim of mental illness due to the mandated military service (“Should Military Service Be
A 15 year old is just becoming an adult and it is imperative that they make healthy eating decisions. They have to overcome the pressures of just eating sugar all day and not being active. It may become easy to fall into a universe full of fun and not looking after yourself. A healthy 15 year old will eat on average 1,800 to 2,400 calories every day. But not only will they have to eat this many calories, but the calories must come from different places. Someone can’t just eat 2,000 calories of pure fat, like candy. A good healthy lifestyle would mean to eat about 60% to 70% of carbohydrates and only around 25% of fats. The teen must also start exercising, not necessarily working out vigorously, but they have to move their bodies. The best thing a teen can do to get that oh so important exercise is to simply do something active for at least an hour a day. With this diet and exercise, a teen will be healthy and on track to be a healthy adult.
As many other countries mandate young adults partaking in the military for two years, the United States should follow suit. Many beneficial consequences would be rendered as a result of the increase in service. This would also be a great commencement into the real world for any young adult. These statements can be explored by discussing the benefits of free college tuition, disciplined young adults who are ready to follow orders, and the sheer power of numbers.
