How long do you really want children to be considered minors and never have to be responsible for their actions? Many people argue that the age 18 is too young for a kid to be considered an adult. For those people that believe that I would like to ask, at what age do you want children to learn how to be responsible adults that can make their own decisions and help our country grow?

Some people might argue and say that eighteen is too young to make big decisions like who the president of our country is because eighteen year old minds aren’t fully matured. I disagree with those people because as a young person, I can say that young people understand more than older people think we do.

Another thing people might argue is that we are irresponsible to make our own decisions and that we are not ready for the real world. Those people that think that are incorrect because they never even let us try to make our own decisions and live as an adult. It is unfair to say that eighteen year old aren’t ready for the real world when they won’t give them a chance. Take it from somebody who is a young person who is being affected by this, if we don’t think we are ready to be an adult at eighteen, we would not try so hard to be considered
