All young people should do two weeks of compulsory work for the community every year. Discuss.
Many people believe young people should be required to do two weeks of compulsory work for the community every year (such as street cleaning, planting trees or helping old people).
There are arguments both for and against this rule.
One of the arguments for introducing compulsory community service for young people is enhancing a sense of civic responsibility and community spirit in young people. For example, by working together on projects that benefit the community, young people would learn the value of cooperation, hard work, and helping others, which could be an opportunity for them to learn new skills and gain valuable work experience. Additionally, such a program could help to address some of the social and environmental issues facing our communities, such as litter or deforestation.
On the other hand, some young people may feel uncomfortable and resentful when forced to do work they do not want to do. In addition, they suppose that mandatory community service is an infringement on personal freedom and individual choice, which could lead to a negative attitude towards community service and make it less likely that they will volunteer in the future.
Personally, I am in favour of introducing compulsory community service in two weeks for young people every year because it helps themselves and also solve community issues. However, I think it is important to ensure that young people are given a choice of community service projects to work on, and they are adequately supported and rewarded for their efforts.
