It has been suggested that all young adults should be required to undertake a period of unpaid work helping people in the community. Would the drawbacks be greater than benefits to the community and the young adults themselves?

In

this

day and age,

community

service

has become an unreplaceable part in -> of our life. It is suggested that every teenager should be forced to take part in volunteer

work

to help people in society. From my point of view, the disadvantages have outweighed the advantages and the following essay would help to strengthen my point.

To begin

with,

community

brings a lot of merits to society,

as making the sight of the city becomes better, or providing help to people in need. When teenagers attend volunteer

teenagers and can be time-consuming.

Firstly

, doing unpaid

work

can demoralize the adolescence who participate in the

work

. When young adults take part in the

work

, the idea that they would be rewarded will motivate them and make them

work

harder. So if they are not getting paid, it will take away all of their spirits and reduce their productivity.

Furthermore

, many teenagers do not enjoy doing

the

community

, as in their perceptive, it appears to be a waste of time.

Community

service

comprises many works and errands,

such

as cleaning the street and helping the elderly, but in reality, there are workers who are paid to do these works. So, in fact, many adolescents would not bother to take

community

service

properly because they think there are people who do those jobs already.

For instance

, many students and young adults are asked to help take care of the elderly in the home for the aged, but there are already nurses with professional knowledge to operate and carry the job, and sometimes help come from young adults would slow them down.

To conclude

, doing

community

work

that helps society does have its own benefits,

nevertheless

, the drawback of

this

issue is greater, as it can be time-consuming and does not bring the desired results.
