Outside of actual conflict, the majority of suggestions for the draft are merely a suggestion to correct poor or nonexistent parenting. The military is really not the proper place to expect a person to mature into a productive and adult part of society. The old canard of go into the military or go to jail by a judge is just kicking the can down the road and forcing the military to be a "parent". Assuming the miscreant can actually qualify for service.
Yep I agree
Here’s the problem.
Who raised them? We did. Many of my generation screwed up. Too much pampering, virtually no discipline, too much gaming instead of learning to adapt to the world around them.
Lets not blame them for our faults, they aren’t as bad as some I grew up with.
My/our generation were not perfect angels at the same age. In fact, in a few ways worse.
Kids learn from what they are taught and see.
So, we need to be honest and ask ourselves, where did they learn bad habits before they found the street? A person’s personality is rooted by 5 yrs old.
I don’t care to look down on them fir our mistakes.
