Have you ever wanted to know what it was like to be able to vote? Well, some believe that the voting age should be changed, in particular, lowered to 16 years. As for me, I do not support this and believe that the voting age of 18 should remain, because we should be more mature to vote.
Today, kids under the age of 18 continue to rely on their parents’ choices because they dont have time to research when they are in college. When you are in college, you should be focusing on your grades and your degree. You barely even know how to do your taxes, so why would you get to vote? Some kids dont go to college, so what is our reasoning for that? You might live with your parents for a while after you graduate from high school. You only listen to what your parents say, even though you might not believe what they are saying.
At 16, young people are less experienced in living alone, paying taxes, and just surviving in the real world. Their parents have told them how to live their lives instead of actually showing them. Some teenagers are incredibly immature, so it would be wrong to let a teen who did not know what they were even doing vote. If 16-year-olds are too young to buy a gun to hunt or protect themselves, then they should be too young to vote. Also, oftentimes when you are this old you don’t have your own opinion, so you just vote for the person that your parents are voting for. Some people think the voting age should be lowered because they think their kids have great ideas and they have all this extra time because they dont help their parents around the house. When they vote, they dont realize what they are getting into.
This is what Robert Tracinski from The Federalist says: But what Ive seen from the teenagers getting the most television coverage has confirmed their poorly considered political views should not have binding power over anyone and explained why they should not be given any kind of authority on matters of national importance . 16-year-olds think that it would be so awesome to be able to vote, they think this is some kind of a game. But our nation and the way we run it depends on the people who are in it, and I don’t think we should be putting some of the ways we run the United States of America into the hands of a mindless 16-year-old who doesnt know what they are doing. We dont even know if they will actually research things instead of just randomly choosing a name. They arent even fully adults yet, and they should still be in high school, in which they are either hanging out with friends or studying for an oncoming test. How would they have time to research what they need to know?
I don’t think we should lower the voting age because teenagers don’t always think about what’s right. Older people know better than people who are still in school. We don’t need young citizens to let this environment fall. We need more mature people to vote. Therefore, the best solution is to keep the voting age at 18.
