I agree that some sixteen year olds are more mature than others, and some make very good decisions. But I still stand by my assertion that a lot of maturity (generally) can be learned in the two years between age 16 and age 18.

I don't get to make the rules, but I don't agree with sending our 18 year olds off to war either.

How many valuable resources will be used in trying to locate this young lady? I'm not saying those resources shouldn't be used, just noting that they are going to have to be used.

I wish her well and I hope to read very soon that she's been found and is fine.
