  2. In Great Britain and in California,you can´t get a tattoo,until, you are eighteen years old.
    I think it´s right for eighteen-year-olds to get a tattoo at that age, because,It seems to me that they are more conscious to decide on a tattoo. We have to consider that a tattoo will be part of your skin forever, so, you must be responsable and secure about that.
    When I was in Sweden, I could see some teens wearing silly tattoos on their bodies,and,now,
    I wonder if they feel ashamed about that old decision.what do you think about it?

  3. in great britain and California you can drive a car as a minor thing for me is very early and at that age is around 15 to 16 years still does not take the risk faced consciousness behind the wheel, also the responsibility That contract, and that end up playing or showing to others what they have and can do, causing accidents and that it endangers their lives and others who in many cases have nothing to do . according to my opinion why these laws must be reviewed and see the danger to young driving.

  4. I find it is not necessary to be coming of age for getting tattoos, and that if I have the idea of getting a tattoo, the idea will always be. I do not think a person is more or less conscious of having only eighteen, it will only depend on the person and the maturity that you can have, should have some responsibility for deciding to get a tattoo, personally I find that Tattoos are a stupidity, because it is something attached to the body and is a brand that will have for life.

  5. In california at 15 you can get a permit to learn how to drive a car or motorcycle.
    I think it's not good to allow people of 15 years old having the legal chance to learn how to drive, because they don't have enough responsibility to take care about theirselves and a car.Letting them learn how to drive can make them lie to their parents and get a car or motorcycle out without a previous permission.
    What could cause a big chance into a little man's hands ?

  6. Juveniles commit crimes of status for various reasons. For example, some children have the same types of problems continually. These children feel sad, lonely, and angry. You might feel so lonely and upset that always disobey their parents, do not go to school, or perhaps run away from home. But being a minor, violating the law by doing these things.
    so the laws should be changed one example is a driver's license could get 15 years.
    could also change the law on crimes of minors from 15 years should go directly to jail because they are aware of their actions

  7. In Britain, you can buy cigarettes and tabaco at the age of sixteen years old
    well, it seems to me at that it is very bad for this country because if you start smoking at an early age are more likely to get lung disease or lung cancer.
    I think the right age to buy cigarettes would be twenty years since this age has a greater maturity and awareness of the consequences of smoking.

  8. I agree with a law that is being used in California, says that a person with 15 years and is eligible to get permission to drive. whenever an adult co-driver with experience on the subject, ADME the driver must follow all the rules for driving a vehicle as appropriate, if these simple rules are not respected, should not allow a young driver.

  9. Well, I think that if a boy committed a crime, the court may be sent to a young offenders' institution, because in today's times, it is difficult to find a young man who is incapable of committing a crime, either, for a little of money or anything you want, so this individual is able to attack others without fear to achieve their goal.
    I agree with beer that you can have (but not wine) with a meal in a restaurant, because you are already the young old enough to drink alcohol while you are responsibly and with parental consent.

  10. As mentioned previously in Great Britain and in California, you can not get a tattoo, until, You are eighteen years old.
    in my opinion, old enough to get a tattoo should be extended in more years, as some people might be coming of age, but no reasoning needed to take into account what is being done is for a lifetime.
    I think to put a tattoo would have to be of age worldwide, and that can be said to have greater knowledge or rather clear what they like and do not make decisions irresponsibly.

  11. I agree, a tatto is a thing that is going to be forever in your skin, and the perfect year for taking better decisions is at the age of eigtheen. For example, a person who have sixteen isn't going to have more maturity than a person who have twenty-one years.
    In other words, I think the things have to be taking with conscious and responsability, and when we are adult (+18), these are qualities that we'll have, at least the most of people.

  13. I agree that in Great Britain and california you can´t get a tattoo before eighteen years old.
    Because for me a tatto isn’t just a design in our skin,it's the representation of good and bad experiences of our life or also a representation of our style, and before the eighteen years old, I think that we could be a little immature to take a desicion like getting a tatto if it always will be in our skin.

  14. At fourteen in Britain :
    You can go into a bar, but yo cant buy or drink alcohol there ...
    I do not agree with this rule and that the teenagers start to experience very rapid environments that are not age appropriate.
    For others it is very difficult to drink alcohol than other people have
    Another point is that in those other places to consume alcohol are other things that should not be seen by teenagers

  15. I agree with that at 18 years can make a tattoo since one has the knowledge of the pros and cons it takes to do one. If done one at a young age runs the risk of regret or do not like the tattoo and will have to have a treatment to get it out which takes about a year and costs a lot of money, besides being a minor have to ask permission to parents and they do not always give permission for their children, so children bring their friends and pose as their parents (this can even lead to jail). So it is best to have one when you are grown old, has The knowledge and responsibility necessary to handle the same

    I think it's not good to allow people of 15 years old having the legal chance to learn how to drive because they are too young and if they do a big mistake it would be the law's fault because they let them to.

  17. That's all very well, but in california on entering the military at age 16 is something that should be on the minds of young people today, because they think have a good future, when making a decision.
    for example, children of long ago saw as only the father worked and they hoped that things reach their hands.
    to enter the army used to grow and mature as a person.

  19. In california you can get a permit to learn how to drive a car or a motorcycle and you can drive a car or a motorcycle on your own.
    I am against that young people of 16 to obtain driver's license, because at that age on they only think about entertainment and fun.
    That situation in turn can cause damage, deaths and accidents to other people like yourself.
    The driver's license should be obtained at age 18 because one is more aware of their actions and can take more caution.

  21. I think it's a bad idea that there is law in Britain is leaving school at sixteen, as I believe that education is the most important thing and they never have to leave school. besides that would do a young man sixteen years do leaving school to work? I do not think this is the best option. and how they could access the university if you have a good foundation is the school. for that reason I think a sixteen year old girl can not leave school until it meets its primary and secondary education in Chile and as the only education you can choose whether university education

  23. In California you can live apart from your parents if a judge says it's okay:

    I disagree because at age 14 children are still very immature, there are adults who can not live independently, I believe that unless a person could do at that age, as the first concern should be studies and family

  24. In my opinion it is wrong in California can get a permit to learn how to drive a car or a motorcycle at fifteen years of age because at that age one is not yet mature enough to drive a car or motorcycle. Well, for example, several accidents due to alcohol and speeding, in which young people are at the wheel.
    In other words, I think the driving license should be given to an age in which they are more mature.

  25. I think tattoos are silly in adolescence because they only think about the fun and not in the future that they will have, for example at work or if you want to join the military.
    I think the law in California is OK Because at eighteen have Greater Responsibility and awareness in the person.

  26. well it seems to me that the right of leaves school if you pass special exam and your parents are agree it is a very well right in USA but this right in Chile will not work , because the teenagers usually don t want to go to school .if the government applied this right in Chile . teenagers would have much interest in an unproductive stuff . In Chile the teenagers should have more interest in the future. If this is achieve the right would bring many benefits for teens and for the country. finally it's a very good law but depends on the country in which it is applied.

  29. in britain at fourteen you can go into a bar, but you can't buy or drink alcohol there.
    that it's good in part, but it's not entirely.
    i remember that I wanted to go to a bar at the fourteen and as can't come in to the bar I went to the street and this wasn't good and is insecure but stay on the bar neither it, because the scene it's dangerous and problematic for the teenager and the owner of the bar.
    in chile when a teenager is drunk and detected for the police the owner should pay fine, if the teenager come in to the bar it's most probable that he will be drunk.

  32. I agree with that at 18 years can get a tattoo because you have the knowledge of good and bad, that would be needed to become one. a tattoo is something that will be forever in your skin, and the perfect year to make better decisions is at the age of eigtheen.
    If an at an early age is a risk of regret or do not like the tattoo and will have to be treated to what many people use, but this has a very high value.
    besides being a minor has to ask permission to the parents and not always give permission for their children, for children to bring their friends and pose as their parents.
    In other words, I think things have to be taken with responsibility and accountability, and as adults (18), these are qualities that we have, at least most of the people.

  34. 1-In California, at twenty-one you can own a handgun, but you can't hide it in your car or carry it with you.
    I do not agree that we have a gun in our house, it is very dangerous for children who take it as it may think it is a toy and suddenly gets out a shot that can kill anyone who is near, even can kill themselves. Also, if you do not have enough skill to use it, you better not use it.
    2-In california, at sixteen you can drive a car o a motorcycle on your own.
    I do not agree that the youth of sixteen years to drive a car or motorcycle, because I find that at that age are too young to take that responsibility, in addition to sixteen young people are very irresponsible and who drink to get drunk, what can lead to death.

  35. Do you know what your Rights are?

    In Britain, At Sixteen...

    “You can get married if your parents agree.”

    In my opinion, I think that it’s bad, because the love is strange and complicated, and two people with just 16 years old don’t know if their feelings are true or simply it’s a love that will end soon. Obviously they will say that their love will last forever, and maybe in the principle all will be ok, but soon they will see their differences and will start the discussions and problems and both will say, This isn’t what I hoped about us.
    And why does this happen?, Because their parents are irresponsible and they had to say “NO, you won’t get married.” And because they are young people and immature, that need to be orientated and advised.
    For this reason I think that the normal age that the young people need to get married it's 18 years old.

  36. In California at sixteen you can drive a car or a motorcycle on your own.
    I think it’s wrong at sixteen year they are such a kids to have responsibility to drive a car or motorcycle on the highway because that young people can get an accident they are a risk for the other people.

    In Britain at eighteen you can vote.
    I think it’s good and import that young people have the right to vote because they have the rights to choose who rule. Also their opinion is important to the future of their country.

  37. About the laws that exist in California, I dissent in the law of the possession and use of weapons, because I find it dangerous to have a gun without having a concept of responsibility in mind. I think twenty-one is not psychologically mature, and get a gun should take a test to check if you are able to have a gun in your possession.

    On the present laws in Great Britain, I dissent in part about going to bars without buying alcohol, where I think there is little control of it, and that easily bar owners to make more money selling alcohol to minors and therefore, should enter the age of eighteen, not sixteen.

  38. You can work on a farm for your parents, but not during school hours:


    I do not agree because one like the student has to have the time in the house to be capable of verifying the matter and the study for anybody tries or to do works that the teachers give us.

    About the personal thing I do not agree that it is necessary to working to such a short age but I believe that this depends on the situation on one because if this is necessary to work to help the parents if I am going to agree, but if one works only for the tastes of one I do not agree :)

  39. 1-in California at 16 you can drive a motor bicycle handle on their own without adult guidance.
    I Do Not Agree becouse this age is very irresponsible and not mature enough to take charge of their own actions

    2-I agree that in Britain and California that tattoos can not be made before 18 years because before being older are not responsible enough to know that want to get into their bodies

  41. In California at the age of sixteen you can drive a car. We think that the fact of drive a car at the age of sixteen can mean a game for the driver, so this can mean more accidents to the teenagers and their family. Maturity is needed to drive a car.

    In Britain, you can get married at the age of sixteen. We think that this is wrong, because the teenagers don't have the maturity to assume this commitment, its better get married at the age of 22 or more, in this years exist more maturity

  42. I believe the California law that says “you can work three hours on a school day between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m, but not more than 18 hours a week; or you can work eight hours between 7 a.m and 9 p.m when school is out, but not more than 40 hours a week” is a good law that allows children to work to get some money and study at a time, and although it maybe a bit tiring I keep thinking it's an excellent choice for those who perhaps need the money. I also believe that children have the right to work in lower work stress (of course without omit their studies)

    In Great Britain , you can´t go into a bar, but you can´t buy or drink alcohol there?,until, you are eighteen years old.

    In my opinion this is very bad.
    Firstly because they are coupled with unknown people who are older than them, therefore, are stronger, taller, etc..
    Secondly those who are older can drink and in front of these children so that they can ask more of alcohol and give them an adult as well drink or smoke and ultimately may die in a street fight or car accident.

  48. In California at the age of sixteen you can work with dangerous equipment such as tractor, forklifts, etc. I disagree with this rule, because the young people can hurt then-selves, and can lose an arm, a leg or something. The teenagers could make this, from my own point of view, at the age of eighteen because in this part of our life we have more maturity.

  49. In britain you can married if your parents agree

    I disagree with this law since having taken the desicion of marrying is a link for the whole life in addition the young persons to the sixteen years they do not have the sufficient maturity to take the desicion of marrying in addition they are minors and in spite of the fact that they marry the authorization of his parents even they are a load of them and are those who are going to sustain them

  50. In Britain you can drive a car when you are 17 years old.

    I think this is great becouse one can drive without being stopped by a police but one must always be careful and responsible when one drives, also i think is great becouse one is more independent and more mature.

  51. I think about the law in which “you can get a permit to learn how to drive a car or a motorcycle, at fifteen”, that is very careless, because the teenager; at this age are most immature or aren’t prepare for driving.
    Perhaps at some moment the teenager may act very unwisely and a tragic accident can happen, because the teenager at that age does not have much awareness, as adults should have to avoid driving hazards such as speeding, or drunk.
    Obtain driver's license should be for people over age 20 or could be under that age, but with the condition that the person makes a psychological test for the maturity of the individual.

  52. In Britain, at fourteen years old, "You can go into a bar, but you can´t buy or drink alchol there"
    Well, in my opinion,I do not consider that a fourteen years old, young person, could enter a bar,althought this one does not allow him to drink alchol. This is not good,Because something a bad might happend to him, for example:
    Drunk man,might hurt him.
    This law is bad, they are very young and can fall down in the alcoholism for seeing men consuming the alcohol if it was normal.

  53. In California you can get a tattoo at the age of eighteen

    My opinion is than it´s okay it´s okay becuase at eighteen one and is of age and already has more responsibility for their actionns, as well as become an adult at eighteen and know that happens to have certain freedoms and rights that you yourself can take on attaining that age, as well as tattoos on a cultural perspective are very well regarded as some use tattoos for others to see what attitude you have or just as is his character or way of life, Furthermore there are also risks when putting on a tattoo and you may be allergic to the ink or that your skin does not adapt well to the time of healing, in addition to getting various diseases as a result of all this

  54. In my opinion: I believe that the law that says "you can work for an employer with special permit if your parents and school agree" it is very helpful for those that truly want to work for diverse things, this could take him time for studies but even , if it is with the permission of the parents means that they know that can be heads. This case is very similar in Chilean reality

  55. You Can buy cigarettes and Tobacco (sixteen years old )

    I believe that Britain's law that says "You Can buy cigarettes and tobacco" is not right, because at that age, not all youth are aware of the harm these drugs can cause to your body when you are older.
    Also leads the young to consume at an early age and be exposed to some addictions Tobacco and Cigarettes.

    So I disagree with this law.

  56. About the laws in britain, I disagree with the law which says that at fourteen years is permitted to enter a bar without being able to buy or drink alcohol inside the bar, because it is not often an appropriate place for children of fourteen years because in spite of they can not buy alcohol, they also can be influenced to drink through that environment, as well as other substances such as drugs.

    I think that in a bar you can see many situations that a child of fourteen years should not attend because, although children are not drunk, it is possible that many people were acting irresponsibly, doing inappropriate things and or simply beside himself.

  57. in England teenagers can work from the twelve years a determined number of hours.
    My opinion is that this is a good law because teenagers know what work is and managing money etc. without neglecting their studies.

    in California a 16 years old can drive without adult supervision
    I think this law is irresponsible because a 16 year old is not mature enough to assume the responsibility that involves driving a car.

  58. I think that getting a driver's license is a big responsibility.
    A person under 18 should not be licensed o 17. At age 15, the person is not responsible or mature enough for such permission to drive a car.
    Driving a car brings the responsibility of caring for the lives of accompanying passengers accompanying y there to have maturity.
    In Chile, the laws are different from the U.S., but consider how dangerous it could be if all children aged 15 and drive a car on the streets.

    At fourteen…
    You can go into a bar, but can’t buy or drink alcohol there.
    In my opinion a fourteen-year-old boy should not enter to a bar though it could not drink or buy alcohol. In environment that presents a bar for a boy of only fourteen not suitablly.
    A young person with fourteen years should be in another place as a square, and park or in the mall, where he could enjoy as a child of his age and not in places where teens could acquire bad habits like drink alcohol and smoke the tobacco

  61. I do not agree with California law that says that young people can lead free sixteen years without an adult at his side; because teenagers don’t have enough mature and do not know how to measure their actions for example, may consume alcohol in excess driving and cause an accident or simply not knowing how to measure speed.

    There are many cases of youngsters who cause a car crash has ended his life and many times not to measure the risk.
    I think at this age you can drive but with a responsible adult with him or be allowed to do it when you are older.

  62. I think that to allow to minors, in this case, fifteen-year-old children to obtain his driving licence, it does not seem to me. In other words, I think that the minors do not have the sufficient one mature to have conscience of that that will have a car on his own and that if they fail will be able to expose his lives and lives an other ones to the death

    It is important to know that at the age of sixteen, To be able to do the theoretical examination of driving. And at the age of eighteen it is allowed to do the practical examination.
