Question:
It has been suggested that all young adults should be required to undertake unpaid work helping people in the community. Would the drawbacks of such a requirement be greater than the benefits to the community and the individual young adults?
Answer Hints:
You should consider two sides, young adults and communities, and give your choice clearly. In general, the "drawbacks" view is easy to be accepted. If we dislike unpaid jobs, why do we require young boys or girls to take them? Just because their voice is weak?

For young adults
  • Unpaid jobs hurt the motivation of young adults to learn how to work.
  • Unpaid jobs lessen the chance to make money and use money for youth who need these experiences to grow up.
  • Unfair treatment impacts the view of the adult world in youth, especially in their own communities.
  • Any forced unpaid jobs are to exploit laborers, whether adults or young adults.
For communities
  • The communities are to raise the next generation, not take them as unpaid workforce.
  • Unpaid youth will have negative feelings for their communities.
  • The community task should be done with a regular budget; unpaid jobs degrade the service quality.

Instead, teenagers need more motivation to learn how to work in their free time. Working is a bridge to link them to society and the future...

In the view of communities, unpaid jobs may offer more workforces. But their service quality is low, and the managing cost is high...

In my opinion, youth taking unpaid work to help people in the community has more drawbacks for both sides...
