In the United States of America, the legal voting(投票,选举)age is 18 years. Though some Americans have expressed interest in raising the voting age, saying that these important decisions should not be left in the hands of a teenager, I disagree. I believe that those who are 18 years old are ready to take on the responsibility for voting.
We all know that in the United States, 18 is the age when an individual is considered an adult by the g an adult in the eyes of the law is quite different than simply being a juvenile. Punishments for illegal activities become much tionally, at 18,an individual can join the army without receiving permission from his parents to do ,when a citizen tums 18, the politics of the country start affecting him in a completely different way. It is unfair to let one lead a severer lifestyle and not allow him any choice in the matter.
Furthermore, by allowing a teenager to vote, we are helping to ensure that he will become more politically minded at a younger age. I didn't care at all about the politics of my country when I couldn't vote. As I couldn't do anything about the politics at the time, I couldn't see why I should care. It wasn't until I turned 18 years of age that I started actively trying to understand who ran my government and the way in which it was governed. By allowing 18-year-olds to vote, we are getting them engaged in the world of politics much sooner.
In addition, teenagers today are much smarter than we think. Today's society is much more technologically advanced than it was in the past. Teenagers have access to all kinds of information through the Internet and their smart phones. So, teenagers have enough knowledge to make good decisions.
Therefore, I think 18 is indeed a proper age to make important political decisions and those who are 18 should be allowed to make important decisions that will affect their nation.
