Drafting Kids for War

To me if I have the chance I will end it .its unreasonable to draft people we called the future of tomorrow into battle. To me, I think we mortgaging the future. The kids are supposed to be developing and preparing for the future not to face death an early stage of their life.

Drafting children for war is a waste of time, life and my property. Those children are not trained so, why will they be sent for a war. this should be one act that should never be encouraged in our world today

It's a terrible decision. Studies exist showing a correlation between juvenile's participation in war and lifelong trauma, mental illness and behavioral disorders. So it's a complete no for me.

There is no good justification to do that. As society, it's our duty to shield young people from the brutalities of war. When it reaches the point where nations have to draft young kids, I think that is the sign to stop wars.

If I had the power, there wouldn't just be kids drafted in war, there would also be a law in the UN Security Council explaining the age limit for being drafted in the military.

It's not right for kids to be drafted for war. If I had the power, I would definitely stop this menace. Kids are too young to be drafted into war. Nobody should even be forced to fight.

Drafting kids for war it's not okay and can't be acceptable. War is a scary thing and throwing untrained kids into it is a horrible thing.

If I had power, I could end this act of drafting kids into war. Kids are the leaders of tomorrow and hence need to be exempted from anything associated with war.

I see no reason why kids should be drafted for war. What will the future hold if all the kids die of during the war, which legacy will be left behind? These are questions that need to be answered before thinking of drafting kids for war.

When war comes, all logic is thrown to the wind. Governments do almost anything to win, including sending children to war. It is very sad and should be condemned by all.

If I have the power, I will definitely stop this. Serving the father's land should be a voluntary act of service, not a forced one. The drafted kids most times end up being anti-social, and some end up being brutal beyond a reasonable level.

Live this, you have said it all.

I've watched a movie where kids were drafted for war. Unlike me, I just found myself crying, and I don't want to think of that scene again. Drafting kids for war is the worst thing that will ever happen

It is a menace and I will end it if I could. Kids should not be forced to fight in old men's wars. The kids who get drafted to fight in wars have no hand in the existence of the war and most times won't even benefit from its victory. War just serves the interest of whoever is in power.

I think in this day and age we should be civilized enough to not have wars, but as there are factions out there who will always want something which isn't their's I would suggest people in prisons should be sent out to war zones. Murderers, rapists, pedophiles, etc. The people who should never be around civilized humans. Let them fight, it's what they enjoy!

Children should never be called upon to fight, children should be taught that fighting gets you nowhere, and that being a decent human who is a pleasure to have around is what they should be striving to be!!
