either to partake in community service or to pursue their own interests prior to university life. From my perspective, I voice disapproval of the aforementioned, in that I believe there exist many potential risks and drawbacks which need giving serious consideration.
In the Use synonyms

that is
of great concern. Linking Words
In particular
, not everyone is financially sufficient to eke out a living during their time devoted to voluntary work, since the cost of travelling as well as that of living would be extortionate for those being only young adults. Linking Words

could be a burden to some who are not flexible or have not been able to make a living on their own.
What is more, there appear to be cases in which adolescents would find themselves going on the wrong track. Linking Words

All things considered, while taking a Use synonyms
