[QUOTE="Peacemaker, post: 1491752, member: 12095"] I think the issue with this age deal is one that will never be answered in a way to please everyone. I think people mature at different rates and some people never mature. The key is that I think we should shoot for something that is reasonable. I don't know that I have the right answer but I think - "if a person is at an age where he is expected to be on his own, earn his own living, and defend his family from outside harm has a right to protect himself as a citizen" - type of argument holds more water with me than if he's allowed to fight in a war or drink alcohol type of argument. to me, it is about individual liberty and when he is no longer under the legal responsibility of a parent or guardian because no one else is going to be expected to protect that individual's physical well being.
