..no Arista it wouldn't help 'them' because young people, like older people, like any people are not 'them', they're not a collective.. so it's not something that 'they' need or that 'they' would benefit from...would any young person benefit and gain from something like national Service..?...yeah probably but that's the same with anything and because of their personality/character and so it has to be choice...so as a nation we spend time talking about free choice/democracy etc and how we have 'fought' for it over years only to take it away from young people through forcing them into National Service...the Royals are more or less born into the military, into that being part of their lives and that's because of who they are and what their lives are/as individuals so for them it's something that they feel they benefit from...and it gives them more of a balance/'reality' in their lives..but 'realities and the real world' is something that many young people are very aware of already without national Service...it's not something 'they' need at all ....
