People under the age of 18 should NOT vote. And here’s why: people under the age of 18 are still developing and learning about the outside world. In a way, they are still children. Of course, the youth are allowed to have their own opinion but should have a chance to grow and experience real life situations, regarding politics. Be able to gain knowledge and learn about different topics such as the environment, construction, taxes, etc. Be able to seek other civilians perspectives and ask questions such as “Do we need better roads? Should we continue drilling for oil or find more convenient ways of using fuel? Do schools need more funding? Will voting for so-and-so help our community, city, town, state?” And people under the age of 18 are going through enough pressure already: dealing with school, chores, perhaps a job (if they are in high school). Voting will just add on to the pressure. The age of 18 is the perfect age for one to vote because it gives the youth time to fully consider their opinions, views and feelings towards certain issues. As well as understanding the political parties and their purposes.
I hope this is decent! Sorry if this doesn’t hello much. I wish you luck on your assignment!
