Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmes (for example working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children.) To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It cannot be doubted that societies must do all they can to support future generations and,
in particular
, adolescents. While many may think that making teenagers do Linking Words

without payment as part of the secondary school curriculum would be beneficial, I strongly oppose Use synonyms
this
position for a couple of reasons.
The most significant reason why adolescents ought not to be forced into doing free services in the Linking Words
community
is that it would likely breed resentment. The reason for Use synonyms
this
is people are naturally averse to doing anything that seems forced upon them. Linking Words
In other words
, if teenagers are pushed into doing Linking Words
work
for free, they may perceive it as slavery and resent not only the Use synonyms

As a result

not learn or grow as much as they could. If, Linking Words
by contrast

, Use synonyms
then
those who were interested could apply for it and benefit a lot more.

Furthermore
, inserting Linking Words

into teenagers‟ schedules would cause them additional undue stress. Use synonyms
This
is because they are already obligated to study a lot of subjects and they have other commitments as well, which are arguably more important. Linking Words

In conclusion, I do not support Linking Words

service programmes being incorporated into high school curriculums. Use synonyms
In addition

be highly likely that they would carry out the Linking Words
