Message | The current age isnt a big problem, but it is hypocritical. We define a 16 year old as an adult, and therefore capable of making and accepting responsibilities for their actions, yet at the same time we say they must attend school. By doing this, we are not treating them as the adults that, by law, they are. |

Message | This is arbitrary. We should make schooling voluntary. |

Message | we'll vote yes, i mean we really see nothing wrong with giving them a choice at 16 or 17 and as you mentioned we do define an adult as 16, we should definitely give adults freedom to choose, so we'll vote yes |
