the most evil do that to kids!
I agree. It is evil to do this to children.
As I read this though, I'm also thinking about how irresponsible it is to send 18 year olds, and 19 year olds, and those in their early 20s, to put their lives on the line in foreign lands (e.g. Iraq), and then essentially throw away their sacrifice by allowing the rise of ISIS in the territories they fought to secure - thus leading to another threat and mess that the same irresponsible feckless people in Washington will consider sending more young people to clean up for them.
