Compulsory Community Serving Nowadays, voluntary experience has a much louder voice than ever for young people, especially when planning their own careers. From my perspective, it is without a doubt that being volunteers is beneficial for helping young adults to get a clearer picture of what they truly want. However, they should be encouraged instead of forced to gain the experience. On one hand, young people will definitely know exactly what it is like to work in hospitals, for instance, while involved in the scenario. Since, they can see what doctors, nurses, social workers, or even police officers and fire fighters do as their jobs. This practical knowledge is less likely to be learned in schools, or by studying textbooks. Therefore, if students actually be part of the surroundings, they know better of what they want to be in the future. On the other hand, not only can they see the real situation in workplaces with their own eyes, but also given a chance to find out whether they have the passion in assisting patience or not, as the former example. The being a volunteer could be absolutely helpful when students want to conduct autonomously, but disastrous when it becomes an obligation. Because nobody would like a burden on them, especially a compulsory requirement like this for graduation. That is, young people’s attitude toward voluntary might highly be varied, and neglect the real value and virtue of volunteering, which is pity. All in all, governments and schools should never make students obliged to do unpaid community work, though their initial intention is good, students might feel exploited or used. After all, students have their own rights make their own decisions, what governments and schools can do is to protect them and guide them.
