Western cultural ethics and morality pivot on the fulcrum of child soldiers as the only basis for an age of majority in the late teens. So the authority of a military dictates my belief.
The military can physically push everybody around but that doesn't mean that you have to buy into this "age of majority in late teens" thing, surely.
Try and live by that and you might have some problems one way or another.
