Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: No

I feel suicide is much like abortion, it is our body and our life to take, why does anyone have the right to force someone to live. If I want an abortion I can have as many as I want, if however life is painful and I want out, there are the high and mighty who insist someone live with the pain, who in the hell wants to be medicated just to live each day. I say if someone wants to end their life, they should be allowed to do so and instructed on the method with the best success.
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: No

Nope, ending life forcefully isn't the right way.Being a human and not an animal is a rare thing indeed.Consider ourselves lucky :]Commit suicide is just stupid as you just waste your life..
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: No

Besides elderly people who are in real pain, I say no. Normally laws restrict liberty so you want as few laws as possible, however liberty is only appreciated through life, so it is in fact a liberty restoring act to save someones life. We also want to minimize suffering. Therefore, suicide (if legal) should be regulated at hospitals or other place where a medical and psychological evaluation can be done. Suicide at any other place would be prohibited.
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: No

So you're arguing for the other side. I agree insofar that we don't want people raining from buildings and that hefty counselling should proceed the desire in the relatively healthy. Suicide should be an option for the aged and otherwise severely suffering
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: No

Life is not ours to take.
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: Yes

My life is mine to do with as I wish. I am not taking it, but I can give it if I wish.
Debate: Should suicide be legal?
Side: Yes

As long as your wish coincides with that of His Holiness, the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

At the Age 18 children become adults .. They can know whats right and wrong for them .. And the precentage of focus will rise at this age .. And focusing is the most important thing while driving
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

At the Age 18 children become adults Ana arbitrary number.They can know whats right and wrong for them Everybody magically figures this out the day they turn 15? And what does "knowing what is right or wrong for you" have to do with your driving ability? And the precentage of focus will rise at this ageMaybe? But I'd wager it would rise much higher (on average) at later ages, so why stop at 18?
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Ana arbitrary number.You arbitrary numbercist. :PMaybe? But I'd wager it would rise much higher (on average) at later ages, so why stop at 18?Yeah, raise the age to 30. Hehe.Good points man.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

ignoring the jokes all there . but still have right points that they cant wait till later ages our world now needs drivers and workers and they looking for qualifications not the ages so maybe a fifteen years old that able to drive have problems cause the law isn't allowing to his age children take the license.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

totally agreeing with you.the focusing isn't a problem that they think it'd not be in the later ages
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

That is when the law recognizes them as legal adults in some countries; it has little actual bearing on cognitive capacity. You need to actually provide some evidence that those younger than 18 cannot distinguish between right and wrong, or that they lack considerably more focus than those 18 years and older.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

i agree as long as the young children in the age of 16 passed the drivers license test perfectly.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I would agree to that only if the standard were extended to all persons seeking a license. If that is the baseline standard for safety, then it makes little sense to apply it exclusively to one age group.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

there are children who is in the age of 17 or 16 that they're focusing well.its not about focusing .
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I agree with you,but you should know that focusing doesn't matter with age.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

yes . because they will have a freedom to do anything . so I agree to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

A higher sense of responsibility develops from the age of 18 onwards
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

In this age we become more careful and we will have a responsibility.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

18 is just a number that we put to know when children grow up but it doesn't affect the focusing ability.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

In this age we become more careful and we will have a responsibility.Tell that to the 34 year old at the bar about to get into his car and drive home... drunk...
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I think the license not should get for age but for mind test :)
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I agree to this because at the age of 18, teenagers turn to adults and they should be aware of everything around them.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I don't know what's right , but it seems that the law is right after all , so whatever people . Keep debating .
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

In my opinion there is no problem because you training yourself to get licence after 18 years old
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

But also having a license before the age of 18 may increase the chances of having car accidents since A.they wouldn't be adults and B. I don't think they'd be even aware of their mistakes
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

Eighteen is the best age because once you enter it , you've reached adulthood and you could make your own choices
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I think teens should be able to get driving permits that allow driving with limited privileges before age 18, but should not be turned loose alone behind the wheel until after they are 18. Having adult supervision at all times, when a teen is behind the wheel, should logically reduce the number of accidents while the teen driver has some extra opportunities to gain experience as a driver

Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I think the parental support (if it is actually there) is a plus, but most people I know who learn to drive later in life had close friends or family help them learn (i.e. they did not just jump in a car and go for it).

what so ever age is such a waste of days , some people in 20's are stupid just like kids
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

im a teen and I have been driving since I was 7. im a good driver and ive never been in a accident. I also have a job so we should be allowed to drive.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

yes . I agree that the children from 16 year s old can have the ability to drive if they have passed the license test.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

7 years ... very few want to be taller to see the street LoL :D
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

Drivers who are ages 16 to 18 simply cause too many accidents thanks to being distracted on the road with texting and talking on cell phones. Yes, teens have jobs in which they need to drive to work. However, having that job is not worth your life. If you drive to work only to get into a wreck, what's the point? Teens who don't wear seatbelts end up killing themselves in wrecks, so we need to up the minimum driving age to save lives.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Many 14-18 year olds have jobs. You could play the game of "well younger drivers are less safe" and push the age limit up to 25.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

The benefit of that would be better public transportation infrastructure. The drawback is that then you just have 25 year-old's who are inexperienced and thus less safe.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

yes cause they have jobs they need to drive as long as they pass the test .
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

I. Don"t agree with you becaus some studints want to go to th university !! And they are under 25 :)
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I was saying the age limit should not be raised. Im on your side, it was just a hypothetical.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

It is better to get your license while your parents are able to teach you. Once you are 18 you are not really around them much and you would be learning to drive on your own.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

But, they weren't able to spend as much time with those friends and family after turning 18, right?
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

Maybe not the same overall time, but upon what basis do you draw the conclusion that they would spend less time with friends/family learning to drive than otherwise? For that matter, it seems you have bought rather fully into the wholesome family stereotype (i.e. parents fairly well involved in their childrens' lives); there are plenty of deviations from that normative ideal.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Oh, oops, I didn't see where you said people who learned later in life. I thought you meant that you knew people who learned from people other than their parents. I wasn't drawing any conclusions. Oops, my bad. But, I think raising the age will limit the help people can get. Some people will have help, but overall less help.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I just do not know that that is the case. Most people know other people in their lives who drive, and of those that I know who learned to drive late in life they asked one of those people for help learning (i.e. they were not about to try doing it on their own).
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

It has to be true. If I gave you an extra 2 years to find help you would have more options.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

Sorry, what?
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Forcing everyone to wait 2 years to get their license would be 2 less years of options for learning.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

You have forfeit those two years of learning opportunity, but not necessarily the quantity or quality of options for learning (at least not that you have proven). Further, by your rationale we could just keep bumping the age back... what about the lost years of learning between 16 and 18... 14 and 16... 12 and 14... etc. At what point does your rationale cease to apply and some other factor weigh in?
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

By your logic why not push the age back from 18 to 30. You will be able to make way more friends by the time you are 30.At what point does your rationale cease to apply and some other factor weigh in?We are trying to figure out a reason to change the age. My rationale justifies not changing anything.

You will be able to make way more friends by the time you are 30.How does that follow from my logic?We are trying to figure out a reason to change the age. My rationale justifies not changing anything.Your express argument from the offset was that once one is 18 one is not around their parents much so one should be allowed to have a license sooner. Your argument is innately premised upon setting the age limit based upon who is in that persons life at that age; at the point where you have not proven this is actually distinctly advantageous at one age over another the setting of an age limit is inherently arbitrary.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

How does that follow from my logic?You are saying that it is better to learn when you have more friends. You should have more friends at 30 than at 18, so you should force everyone to wait till then. Same silly logic you tried to use to claim my logic supports lowering the age to 14.Your express argument from the offset was that once one is 18 one is not around their parents much so one should be allowed to have a license sooner.

Same silly logic you tried to use to claim my logic supports lowering the age to 14.Except that that is not what I said at all. I said one can have friends and sustained parental connections when they are older than 18, and that you had not proven that a person was less likely to have them past that age. My personal logic has nothing to do with age, for the precise reason that I stated: age is arbitrary. Glad you agree on that.

Not all people most people stay till they're 30 its not that important i think
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

they can learn from license classes . you don't need your parents at that point . ofcourse if you can pay the classes needs.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Those classes only teach the basics. You need lots of time behind the wheel before you are safe. It really helps to have someone who knows what they are doing with you when you are driving as a beginner.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

In most of the US these days, kids leaving the house at 18 is a rarity.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

They go to college.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Not all of them, or even most of them. In 2007, about 39% of the 18-24 demographic was attending college.. So, college wasn't even a factor for almost 2/3 of them.Of those actually attending college, In the 2011-2012 school year, 45% were attending a community college. Community college is typically commuted to, and the overwhelming majority of them do not have dorms of any kind. If there are exceptions to this, I presume they are offset by the demographic that commutes to a university rather than living on-campus.Taking all that into account, and assuming the percentages are relatively static from year to year (admittedly a big assumption to make), the percentage of 18 year olds that are going away to college is ~18%. That's not insignificant at all, but even so, more than 4/5 of kids are not going away to college.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Dang, 18% is now a rarity, ok.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

The term 'rarity' was admittedly a bit of hyperbole, but even so- the overwhelming majority are not leaving the house at 18; that was the point I was making.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

Ok. Well, that was the reasoning I used. There are a lot of people who live with their parents at 25, but some of them weren't there in between. Is it reasonable to spend a lot of time with your parents learning to drive once you are an adult? It kind of becomes a situation where you live with someone, but you are doing your own thing.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I clarified rather than disputed because I actually agree with you on the overall topic of the debate, I was just contesting the whole 'out at 18' thing as a reason.They don't have to be out at 18 for this; if they aren't learning from their parents, they're most likely learning from peers, right? So even if they're learning from a friend who's a few years older, they'd still be learning from an inexperienced driver. Driving is so ubiquitous in the US, and is so underrated in terms of danger, that I think pushing the age to 18 is a bad move; better for them to learn when still firmly under their parents wing, I think.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

Previous "tradition" was to move out at age 18. I thought you were challenging the idea that the move out at 18 doesn't happen any more. I was talking about life changing at 18 and was thinking college. No harm.Yeah, after 18 years parents are just tired and would happy to have their kids out of the house. 16 year olds need to be taken to places. Might as well have the kid drive and "relax" on the way there. Pushing the age will just make 18 year olds the highest in accidents. I think it is driving experience, then maturity in importance.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: Yes

I agree with you there.And even if they don't go to college, well- a lot of college kids indulge in forms of recreation that aren't conducive to driving at all- much less learning to drive.Honestly, I'd say to start teaching them to drive as soon as they're big enough to do it, age be damned. But I know that we have to draw a line somewhere- I don't think going higher is the way to go, probably best to keep it at 16.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

its not about being away from parents some children between the 14-16 years old work and need to drive they also can pass the test of drivers license but they're not allowed to have one .
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

How about this: Once you fully complete a driving class, you get to take a test for your license. If you pass the test, you get your license. Age does not matter.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

yes totally agreeing age doesn't matter as long you pass the drivers license test . the teacher that will qualify you if he's so sure that you're able to drive
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?
Side: No

whenever they can ba able to pass the driving test , they should get their driver's license.
Debate: should teenagers have to wait until they are 18 before they get their driver's license ?

What? Do not be absurd! Licensing people based upon actual, demonstrated ability to drive rather than by arbitrary age standards?
