A Day To Remember

A Day to RememberImage result for men at war


Should men have had the choice to go to war ? I am adamant that men should’ve had
a chance to choose to go to war whether they want to go or not. Men should not have
been forced to do what they didn’t want to do because it is not right for what they were
doing especially if you were under the age of 18. My opinion for the age is the fact that
they should’ve been at least 20 years old and not 18, and if they didn’t want to do it for
them not to get shot or put in jail. Firstly men should have been able to choose if they
wanted to go to war or not. Secondly they should have not been getting shot or being
punished cause they weren’t ready to go to war and risk their lives. Lastly it is not right
for young men to go to war because they should be living life to the fullest and not having
to be going to war at a young age.


Firstly, men should have their own rights to pick whether or not to go to war. Men have
all rights to choose because it is not right for those who are going because they’re forced.
Anzacs should have had their own decision to pick to go to war because they’re taking
a big risk of their lives for others, which is very thoughtful of them, besides the fact of
when they’re getting forced. Men were wanted by the Government because he didn’t
want the people staying back from war to get mutilated and wanted save New Zealand,
yet people will get killed if they didn’t want to or if they had tried to run away.


Secondly, men were forced to go to war but there punishments were dreadful. If you were
to try run away while your fighting or before getting to war you would have been shot. Men
had also been sent to jail back in the days if they had chosen not to go. There punishments
were unsatisfactory and very dreadful for some of those who had to witness what was going
on. Why? Why is it that men were forced to go to war whether they wanted to or not it is not
right for the men who didn’t want to go and they were shot or sent to jail and many more
awful things.  


Finally, all men could should have been able to stay back from war so they could be
with family. For those who were young and under the age of 18 definitely shouldn't've
gone to war, they should have stayed back with their families while they’re young. Young
men, young men back then should have not had their mothers worried and up all night
because they’re wanting there son’s back without any hesitation or worriness. They
should have been living life to the fullest and not having to go to war at such a young age.

I am adamant that men should have all rights to pick whether or not to go to war, not to
be forced to do something, or having to risk their lives, they could’ve stayed back with
their families or they could’ve been to young. Sometimes I think to myself is that even
who they wanted to be as leaders back in the day? It is not a good look, on how we as
people look back at how they were treating people back then. Especially finding out
they were being forced to do something that you shouldn’t be forced for. All men should
have had the chance to “LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!”.

For the past three weeks we have been working on a piece of writing to publish and it has been about Anzac. At the start we were doing one piece of writing each week but that didn't work out because a couple of the students in our class weren't getting it done.

  1. Great piece of writing Roxy! I definitely agree with your opinion that people should have had the right to choose whether or not they wanted to go to war. It is not something I could have done. Maybe next time you could find a few more facts to support your ideas, but otherwise well done.
