They are still not done in school learning about politics and they may not know the full story behind the politics. In the text it states, "Researches generally agree that the brain is still developing until the mid 20's, with skill such as moral reasoning coming later than we once thought." ]]> 2018-09-20 14:09:36 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283924262 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283925413 The voting age should be lowered because allowing people to vote earlier might increase future turnout. In last year's election young adults were the least likely to vote. This is a problem because these people were not heard. Increasing education earlier would mean that students in schools would have a higher and fresher level of knowledge and increased compulsion to vote. Laurence Steinberg states, "Voter turnout is significantly higher among 16 and 17 year olds than it is among older young adults.]]> 2018-09-20 14:10:55 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283925413 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283925806 I think the voting age should be lowered to 16 because by then, everyone is already an adult and they have there own opinions.

I agree with the following statement from the article. "voting 
isn't something done in the spur of the moment. It's done calmly and with much deliberation." Teenagers are taking time, considering their options and coming to a logically determined decision.]]> 2018-09-20 14:12:21 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283926820 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283927744 2018-09-20 14:13:20 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283927744 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283927814 2018-09-20 14:13:24 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283927814 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283928869 I think that the voting age should be the same because some people might just pick a random person and not know who they really want so it would be kinda unfair.]]> 2018-09-20 14:14:31 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283928869 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283934973 i think the voting age should be the same]]> 2018-09-20 14:21:17 UTC https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283934973 https://padlet.com/efreudenfels/uz3s50g54kcl/wish/283935243 I think that voting should stay the same because some people are very irresponsible and should vote at a younger age.
