The youth in many countries are unemployed and unskilled, while at the same time, the military services are in need of people. Compulsory military service is beneficial and necessary. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is a view held that teenagers in many nations are without jobs and do not have any skills, while at the same time, the

army

requires new members.

Hence

, service in the military is helpful and mandatory.

Although

I disagree with the statement made, as laws that impose career choices do not go well with the public. Youth are considered to be the

next

generation of upcoming leaders. In every country, the prime focus is placed on

this

group of individuals. Since, they are mature enough to earn a livelihood, they become an asset. But, in comparison to the jobs available few young people match the skill set.

This

system of demand and supply usually pushes young citizens to do odd jobs.

For example

: robbery, drugs etc. Devoting one's life to the country is not an ideal occupation any person would choose. The decision to join the

army

requires strong mental and physical capability.

Furthermore

, pushing men to join the

army

, as a

last

resort will not make them pursue it as a profession. The risk of death has always engulfed family members of soldiers in the field.

For example

: the people of Syria are in a constant state of war and children are often dragged into the military. Even in Africa, young boys are stolen from their homes and sent to train rigorously in the

army

for battle. In conclusion, it is necessary to have the border of every nation p

rotected,

utter words of protest

protested

but no compulsion is to be placed on an individual's choice of vocational goals.
